Hello

I'm trying to package my own 3.5 using epp but unfortunately no update
site seems to be externally available.

Trying to mirror the p2 repositories seems to fail using the
org.eclipse.equinox.p2.metadata.repository application.

I get

Unable to read repository at
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5/content.xml.
Unable to read repository at
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/epp/packages/galileo/ content.xml.
Unable to read repository at
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo/content.xml.

Directly opening the page http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5
in a browser yields a 404 where as the url
http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/updates/3.5milestones/
is available displaying the nevada test site.

I'm really wondering what I'm doing wrong because I had no problems
fetching these repositories from within eclipse p2 installer.

The eclipse/updates/3.5 repository is available, but it no longer uses a
content.xml file. There is more information on using the mirroring
applications here:

http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/topic/org.eclipse.platform.d oc.isv/guide/p2_mirror.html

Note you'll need to use the Eclipse 3.5 mirroring application due to
changes in the site format that aren't compatible with Eclipse 3.4.
