Dear Xtext users,

the project storage of Xtext needs some maintenance. We have to reduce the 
storage footprint of our storage location and delete or archive old artefacts. 
In detail activities are tracked by
- https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/issues/1436 
<https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/issues/1436> Investigate if we can decrease 
our footprint at download.eclipse.org <http://download.eclipse.org/>
- https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/issues/1626 
<https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/issues/1626> Clean up p2 update storage

One important change is that we are planning to move old releases to 
archive.eclipse.org <http://archive.eclipse.org/>. We will keep releases back 
to Eclipse Oxygen (2.11.0 and newer) and the following older releases that were 
in frequent use:
- 2.9.2
- 2.8.4
- 2.7.3
- 2.4.3

The URLs of archived releases will change from 
http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/tmf/xtext/updates/releases/ to 
http://archive.eclipse.org/modeling/tmf/xtext/updates/releases/ . It is not 
planned to install redirects for the old locations ATM.

We are preparing the move and plan to make it effective with release of Xtext 
2.21 on March 3rd 2020. For any concerns use the above mentioned issues.

Kind regards,
~Karsten
