Not quite an NBM though! Although I presume it may not be feasible to let people test this on 12.3 anyway? If / while it remains optional, an NBM would be the preferred route from a release point of view at least. > NetBeans IDE 12.5 should require: > - either run the IDE on JDK17 for Java related development > - or install modern nbjavac automatically converted with the help of > [advanced refactorings](https://github.com/oracle/nb-javac/pull/12) Should that be 12.6 and/or JDK 16? Not sure if it remains optional, whether requiring an unreleased JDK is a viable position? Assuming we get permission to distribute nb-javac - what then? Do both options remain supported? > PS: If we could also get LEGAL-563 permission in 13.0 LTS timeframe, that > would be magnificent! I'd like to push, from at least that ticket perspective, to see if 12.5 timescale is feasible. In terms of https://github.com/oracle/nb-javac it would be good to see clarification in the readme / license file that *all* sources in that repository, and all binaries built from it, are covered by CPE. eg. the current wishy-washy-ness of "only where Oracle has expressly included in the particular source file's header the words 'Oracle designates this particular file as subject to the 'Classpath' exception" is a problem. Probably also good if the primary docs were moved to a wiki page on the repo, and the primary source of help was the issue queue there and not the mailing lists here, too. It remains to be seen whether distribution from an Oracle group ID and explicitly under CPE is a consideration for this.
