Great thanks to Gavin for providing the instructions.

I was trying to setup an update site for the IJ-Plugins Project hosted
at SourceForge. I create a directory as described. I started the "Add
update site" dialog and filled up fields:

Name:  IJ-Plugins Project
URL:  http://sourceforge.net/projects/ij-plugins/files/fiji_update
SSH Host:  frs.sourceforge.net
Upload directory: home/frs/project/i/ij/ij-plugin/fiji_update

When I click on OK am getting error: "Not a valid URL:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ij-plugins/files/fiji_update". Any ideas?

Note that I tested the site, I can upload files using sftp with no problems.

Thanks,

Jarek
