I've fixed the eclipse update site in r779493 and it works for me now,
and fixed the doc files text in r779226.

I still think its worth releasing this RC1 as 1.5 and fixing those in
a 1.5.1 release in a week or so to give time to find any other issues
that may be in 1.5, so i'm still +1 on this vote (i've pulled the
updatesite from the RC1 artifacts so it wouldn't be releasing the
eclipse plugin).

The doc file typos are pretty minor, eg the RELEASE_NOTES one the
heading is correct its just a mention in the text body, and no one
noticed these during all the RC0 reviews. With a respin we'd not make
a release this month and we've promised to do that so i think its
better to get this out and show users that they can rely on what we
say. As we'd not make a respin this month anyway I'll leave this vote
open for now hoping for a couple more +1s. So please, consider
(re)voting :)
