I'm very sure that many, many people don't understand "p2". I
needed to
search for it: P2 is the new Software Update method.

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Getting_Started

PS: Mark, you also posted the link
http://downloads.open.collab.net/eclipse/dev-builds/e3.3/
which resulted in "The requested URL
/local-access-only/downloads/eclipse/dev-builds/e3.3//index.html was not
found on this server.".

Is this a URL for the Software Update dialog?
