I'll concentrate on the macOS question, which has nothing to do with
NBI.  There have been multiple threads and issues about NBI and
Windows recently.  See https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/8281
and https://lists.apache.org/thread/wt6zpl0ll1vg959soo7gfz7pl8bdyccl

Would you mind summarizing the issues referred to here? If the issues are 
solved in the future, can we consider having official installers again?

The short answer is that I consider a macOS installer (actually all
installers) without an integrated runtime a bad idea!  If you want to
use an alternative JDK, use the zip.

The longer answer is that at least one of the two ASF certificates
that were handed over from John to me are about to expire.  This is a
good time to hand over the task if anyone wishes to take on the
release management job for this artefact.  That point has been raised
a number of times previously and no-one has stood up to offer.  Given
"short answer" I will be concentrating my own time on delivery of the
community installers - I do not want to spend time building,
notarizing and signing something I consider a bad idea.  That does not
stop anyone else from working on and supporting the RC and release
versions of this.  I can also help someone with the NBPackage commands
and notarization instructions for both.

None of this stops anyone on the PMC deciding to put their time into
working on, taking on responsibility, and releasing official
installers again in future.  Or even offering to work on them now in
time for NB26.

Best wishes,

Neil
