If nobody argues against the branch I think we could merge it into
master in, say, 72 hours or so.

After that all merges are indeed welcome. A NetBeans features page is
indeed missing. Some nice screenshots of the IDE and some more from
other products built on top of the platform would be most welcome.

That includes Neil's IDE, of course!!
