This is our first voting candidate for the release of Apache NetBeans 26. Please follow the voting template at the bottom of this email, and note all requirements below for validating sources and convenience binaries before voting.
Apache NetBeans 26 constitutes all clusters in the Apache NetBeans Git repository, which together provide the NetBeans Platform (i.e., the underlying application framework), as well as all the modules that provide the Java SE, Java EE, PHP, JavaScript and Groovy features of Apache NetBeans. ------------------------ Build artefacts are available here : https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/netbeans/netbeans/26/ They were built by the Jenkins pipeline : https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Netbeans/job/netbeans-TLP/job/release260/15/ ------------------------ We are primarily voting on : https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/netbeans/netbeans/26/netbeans-26-source.zip SHA512 : 6308c809574a49d701b68af14fcb2059f3736ad2544f0bcfb4687da7792695aaa3feefee2e614eb0abfee00396b15b0638468202f9c6012d5e4185bef2badc7a KEYS file : https://downloads.apache.org/netbeans/KEYS ------------------------ Associated with the primary source item we have, generated with the pipeline above : Binary zip - https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/netbeans/netbeans/26/netbeans-26-bin.zip ------------------------ Maven Artefacts The Maven artefacts for Apache NetBeans 26 are ready on staging associated to this vote. https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachenetbeans-1152/ The version is : RELEASE260 ------------------------ Voting requirements Before voting +1 you are required to download the signed source code package, compile it as provided, and test the resulting executable on your own platform, along with also verifying that the package meets the requirements of the ASF policy on releases - http://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#management In particular, you should (at least) follow these steps. 1. Download the artefact to be voted on and unzip it. 2. Check that the artefact does not contain any jar files (there are branding folders with the name *.jar). 3. Verify the cryptographic signatures, the NOTICE and LICENSE file 4. Build it using the README provided by the artefact. 5. Look in nbbuild/netbeans for the NetBeans installation created by the build process and try running it. In addition to checking the sources, you may check the associated convenience binary zip and maven staging at the links above. You are not expected to check every convenience binary. As well as checking any artefact functions correctly, you should check that it has been correctly signed by a PMC member, and that the source being voted on is sufficient to build the relevant binary. This vote is going to be open at least 72 hours, vote with +1, 0, and -1 as usual. (Please justify -1) Please mark your vote with (binding) only if you're an Apache NetBeans PMC member to help with voting admin. Only respond if you are going to vote, i.e., this is NOT a discussion thread. Apache NetBeans 26 will be released if and when this vote passes. ----------------------- Voting template Please copy and paste the answer pattern below into your email.
