Hello M2E team I am looking for some help regarding with the m2e catalogs with the m2e connectors install wizard, I am getting the following error when I click
Window > Preference > Maven > Discovery > Open catalog I got this message in the wizard:
Also in the $workspace/.metadata/.log I am seeing this stack trace:

I have checked the catalog URL (http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/discovery/directory-1.8.xml)
and it is reachable:

My question here is, is there a workaround for this issue?
