Geertjan,
I have submitted a PR that adds these instructions to
netbeans.apache.org/src/content/participate/submit-pr.asciidoc
https://github.com/apache/netbeans-website/pull/505
I've only just started to learn about asciidoc and jbake so there may be
some rookie mistakes in the file.
Have Fun,
John L.
