Re: [ide-dev] A "releases/latest" URL in the IDE to ease upgrades?

It seems that the only thing that is left to be done is to extrapolate non-versioned URLs that point to the latest version to all projects and then create yet another composite p2 repo using these URLs. This could be called Continuous Release and could be complementary to Simultaneous Release which happens only a fixed number of times a year.

No, there are URLs that do not contain version segment and that was the whole point of the bug that I mentioned. Please see the bug and the wiki which describes the new URLs:

Some projects (SWTBot, Thym and most I've worked on) do have such URL that links to the latest version, and it's actually handy for users and documentation writers to use this URL instead of a version-specific one.
