Nicolas Lalevée commented on IVYDE-281:
---------------------------------------
Since the next release of IvyDE will require Eclipse 3.4, it should probably be
a good time move the updatesite to be a p2 one
(http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Getting_Started). I have seen some p2 sites
which handle an aggregation of several ones, each final one containing only one
version of the plugin. We could imagine that every old release will have a p2
repository on archive, and the new release one on dist.
I didn't see any explicit support of mirroring though. It needs some further
documentation digging.
> Look into how the updatesite can leverage archive.apache to host old release

> Following the recommendation of the infra, old release should be deleted from
> www.apache.org/dist to be only available from archive.apache.org. Currently
> the IvyDE updatesite is offering to download old stable releases of Ivy and
> IvyDE, per some user request.
> We should find a way to have the IvyDE updatesiste still offering old stable
> releases but they should be downloaded from archive.apache.org.
