At the hotel in Bangalore, the network connection unfortunately doesn't
allow responding to any of these forum entries.
Outlook is blocked, so I am limited to email (there is a web interface, but
I prefer the rich client ;-)
I couldn't replicate the problem so far. Due to the standard Eclipse
download servers, I'll move those downloads and the update site very soon.
Should be able to test it and also the scenario you described for the new
site as soon as it's live. If the problem persists, maybe putting the
problem description into a Bugzilla item would even be a good idea, but
please let's wait until the new download server.
Files are more recent than what you saw earlier under the old URL. If the issue you described still persists, I can use the cloned files/projects you provided under an alternate URL to test here, too.
