Hi all, took NB11.2-beta1 for a spin. Tested on Windows10 with OpenJDK11.
Mostly played with maven projects, installed my favourite plugins, done some NB plugin development. No new feature tested (e.g. no JDK 13 yet). I just had a small glitch: just after feature activation compile on save in maven project was greyed out, all solved after restarting. As far as performance goes I have not "perceived" a lot of difference with respect to NB11.1 on Windows 10. I am perceiving a difference between Windows 10 (work) and Linux (home) but this is a different story. I have yet to test the installer enhancements (selection of cluster at installation time) and JDK 13 support (intrigued by text blocks). All in all a solid point release.
