Hi Hannes, (I only saw you sent your email after the last email I sent)
Thank you Hannes. I think that is the plan now. From 2022-09, milestones https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2022-09 will only point at the current milestone / release candidate / release. Note that it will remain a p2 composite repo of SimRel and EPP's contents.
