I'm not sure this has any effect on Platform apps, just on distribution of
Apache NetBeans.  The one difference I remember from that nb-javac
conversation was that the JRE / JDK itself can be considered as "platform
dependencies".  Am I right to assume that still rules out the IDE binaries
shipping with the JDK, from an Apache perspective at least?  If so, that
might render this thread moot - an installer that can download and install
the JDK would probably be more user friendly then?

Best wishes,
