Yes, from my POV this is a good example, that the CLA model of development does not work. The only argument for the CLA is, that a single party is able to handle copyright and licenses in a sane way, that only worked partially and took a really long time. At least that is a result of this demonstration. You should keep in mind, that the first donations were driven by Geertjan, who put a lot of effort into it and we don't know how much more effort it took behind the scenes. I would not bet on any more donations. > So then what’s next? Option 1: Take the CDDL/GPLv2 licenses source and make that work on Apache NetBeans (nothing stopping the resurrection of nbpython project). If the necessary steps are documented and donation happens the steps can be reproduced against the donated codebase. Option 2: Rebuild Python support from scratch. You already said that the LSP approach might work and given that https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3385 is tested with python LSP, there is already work done elsewhere.
