Hi all, Happy holidays all. :-)
It’s been another great year of quarterly Apache NetBeans releases. In the coming year, we’re looking forward to and can expect: 1. Better start up experience via direct integration of nb-javac into Apache NetBeans. 2. Whole number releases, i.e., the next release will be 13, then 14, then 15, etc. 3. Better start up experience via bundling of OpenJDK with Apache NetBeans, which can’t be done as part of Apache because of the licensing of the OpenJDK, and will be hosted below, at least: https://www.codelerity.com/netbeans/ The above developments, all of which have been discussed at length or at least mentioned on this list several times, together will put Apache NetBeans in a strong position to offer a more complete and coherent basis for further contributions and usage in developer communities. Thanks all for your involvement and support for this project, for some of you over many years indeed. :-) Kind regards, Gj PMC Chair
