Does eclipse support downloading plugins via a traditional mirror
system? For example, if you click on the link for geronimo-1.0-M5 on
our website, you will get sent to the following mirror page:
http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/geronimo/1.0-M5/geronimo-1.0-M5.zip
That this page just lists the locations from which the file is
available. This means that eclipse must be smart enough to follow
the links.
