To answer the question, yes I can access the 
https://repository.sonatype.org/content/repositories/forge-sites/m2e-discovery-catalog/org.eclipse.m2e.discovery.oss-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
 from within Eclipse internal web browser and download it to my local disk.  It 
can be unzipped and I can view the contents.  It contains a plugin.xml, images 
directory, lifecycle directory, and META-INF directories.

Subject: m2e market place is empty for me

I'm having trouble accessing the m2e Marketplace.  Here are the steps I've 
followed:

I've downloaded the latest J2EE version of Eclipse 3.7 Indigo, extracted and 
started eclipse.
Configured the manual proxy settings as required on my network (Window -> 
Preferences -> General -> Network Connections) Checked for updates for base 
Eclipse 3.7 Indigo (Help -> Check For Updates, no updates were needed) 
Installed M2e plugin from the Eclipse update site (Help -> Install New Software 
-> Indigo - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo)
               Selected General Purpose Tools -> m2e - Maven Integration for 
Eclipse & m2e - slf4j over logback logging (Optional)
               The versions were both 1.0.0.20110607-2117 Restarted Eclipse 3.7 
Indigo Went to the Window -> Preferences -> Maven -> Discovery
               Note the Catalog URL defaults to: 
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/discovery/directory.xml and I can 
access this link from the Eclipse internal web browser in eclipse and get the 
following document back:

        <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
        <directory 
xmlns="http://www.eclipse.org/mylyn/discovery/directory/";><entry 
permitCategories="true" 
url="https://repository.sonatype.org/content/repositories/forge-sites/m2e-discovery-catalog/org.eclipse.m2e.discovery.oss-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar"/>
        <!-- <entry 
url="http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/discovery/org.eclipse.m2e.discovery.oss/org.eclipse.m2e.discovery.oss-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar";
 permitCategories="true"/>-->
        </directory>

After hitting the Open Catalog message I get the error dialog: "! Discovery 
completed without finding any extensions.  Please check your network connection 
and try again."

Any help or debugging suggestions would be most appreciated!
