Antonio,

I have much experience with sed/etc and moving files around en-masse on the 
file system using scripting. If you want, I can probably write a script to give 
each graphic/illustration a unique name based on its original folder and merge 
the directories in pretty short order.  I'd just need to get a tarball/zip of 
everything from you.

Peter

Subject: Re: "Original" NB tutorials?

Hi Peter,

Thanks for detecting this!

The "/tutorials" path in netbeans.apache.org comes from
"http://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials";, this is, it comes from the
domain "platform.netbeans.org" and not from 
"www.netbeans.org<http://www.netbeans.org>". So these
are not available in Wade Chandler's copy of 
"www.netbeans.org<http://www.netbeans.org>".

The "platform.netbeans.org" web comes from these two svn repositories:

- https://svn.netbeans.org/svn/platform~platform-content/trunk/tutorials/
- https://svn.netbeans.org/svn/platform~platform-content/trunk/images/

These are not currently available now, but we're lucky I still keep a
clone of these repositories on my hard disk and, as you say, images do
indeed come from different directories and were overwroten in the migration.

These are 1476 tutorials (for different NetBeans versions which are now
outdated) and possibly even for different languages [1].

I'll see what I can do to recover the proper images in each tutorial.

Thanks & kind regards,
Antonio
