This is great news!! Many thanks!!
As facts show, they aren't evil. On the contrary.
I wouldn't say they're competitors, either. They're very good at Swing,
their UI is super fast!
Cheers,
Antonio

Hi Laszlo,
We'd be happy to hand over the development of the plugin to your team
and to transfer the code to Apache NetBeans. We'll still need to figure
out the technical issues, because the plugin depends on code that wasn't
very cleanly extracted from Kotlin and IntelliJ (see this comment
<https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-netbeans/issues/122#issuecomment-428468811>).
(All the code in question is also Apache licensed, but we'll need to set
up a sane build procedure so that you could depend on published
artifacts and not commit jars to the repository).
I'll be happy to be the technical point of contact for the transition
process for the beginning.

Dear Dmitry,
I'm a member of Apache NetBeans PMC and the release manager of the last
two Apache NetBeans releases. It seems there are some interest on
Kotlin
support inside NetBeans and we came across that there is actually an
unmaintained plugin from JetBrains for that.
I've read through the
https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin-netbeans/issues/122 issue and
realized, that wit all that talk, we have never asked for donating that
code to Apache NetBeans.
So here I'm asking you, that is it possible that we take over that code
and maintain it in our repositories, we would maintain and probably
release that along with the IDE?
As the current code is already in Apache 2.0 license, an e-mail from a
responsible person would be enough to do the donation.
Thank you in advance!
Laszlo Kishalmi
