Dear Developers,

initiated by Stefan, I copied our Eclipse update site [1] and made the 
following amendments:

 * I removed the suffix "?use_mirror=dfn" from each URL. I think this was meant 
to be an optimization for Germany-based Saros users, but I don't think this is 
beneficial for the average user.
 * I copied the feature JAR-file to the update site's webspace [2] and replaced 
the URL accordingly. As of now, the feature JAR-file is retrieved via 
Sourceforge's download area (e.g. everytime a user's Eclipse checks for 
updates) and thus pushes our download counter to exorbitant values.

I tested the new update site and I was able to install Saros 13.3.22 without 
any problems and only a few seconds.

In contrast to Stefan's proposal, I would like to offer (some) older Saros 
versions as well. Currently all versions except 13.3.22 are commented out in 
the site.xml and therefore cannot be installed via the update site. 

Any comments?

Franz
