Jaroslav Tulach commented on NETBEANS-516:
------------------------------------------

FYI: One of the things I had to do for 
[http://wiki.apidesign.org/wiki/JDeveloper] was to prepare the IDE caches 
during install time, so they are ready for all users using the same 
installation. This has already been done for NetBeans 8.x.

> As discussed in the dev mailing list, currently if Netbeans is installed in a 
> computer with multiple user accounts, a different set of configurations will 
> be created for each account. This means that each user will have his/her own 
> set of Netbeans plugins and maven repository.
> However, this situation might be undesirable. This means that many plugins 
> would be download and installed in duplicate by different users. This also 
> means that, for two users, maven repositories might be duplicated consuming 
> double network traffic to be populated and double disk space.
> Security is a reason to mantain these configuration separation between 
> different users. However, the user might not want that and instead would like 
> to share his/her workspace with other users in the same computer. So, an 
> option asking if Netbeans files should be stored in user private space or in 
> shared space should be provided.
