I mean not everyone is willing to create a plugin or Change Code of the netbeans core as it is. Because if you see to other Projects like VS Code or other OSS maybe 1M People are users and from them 1% or less, are actively contributors and I think that will not come to an end anyway. Not all of us have full time to work on that Feature request or bug, that we created to fix it by our own. So all of my 200 tickets I can’t fix by my own, because lack of time and Knowledge. I will fix of Course soem, but not all. Cheers Chris Gesendet von Mail für Windows 10 Von: Geertjan Wielenga Gesendet: Donnerstag, 12.

Hard to know when that will be done, but it should be within this month, I think. We could then focus on releasing that -- i.e., the first release would consist of all the new JDK 9 features (Jigsaw, JShell, etc), together with then relicensed source code. And, in terms of people only wanting to be users -- I think that time is coming to an end. People will need to contribute -- whether it is answers to questions on the mailing list, new FAQs, blog entries, Twitter, code, or whatever -- everyone that uses NetBeans will need to become actively involved in the community, which doesn't take much time at all -- a nice tweet about NetBeans takes about 5 seconds to write. I think, though this is just my opinion, that people simply using NetBeans and not giving anything back at all, is something we need to actively move away from.
