RE: [eclipse.org-planning-council] Europa re-spins and Europa Fallmainte

["Oberhuber, Martin" <Martin.Oberhuber@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Nick,

interestingly, for our project our site.xml has been faithfully
giving me download stats even without the magic you mention:
   http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/updates/site.xml

I always reckoned that this line at the beginnign of site.xml
did the trick for me by specifying a proper base URL to which
the relative "features/" pathes were appended:

 
mirrorsURL="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/dsdp/tm/
updates/site.xml&format=xml&protocol=http">

I'm not sure but perhaps that would do the trick for you as well?

Cheers,
