The installer might be bundled (if build from donated code). A JDK
(that was Emilians question) is a different beast.

My reading is, that the apache foundation won't accept GPL*/GPL-2-CP
binaries in files distributed by it. That means we can't create a
bundled release.

That won't stop other though. An external project could create binaries
based on the Apache Netbeans source, that:

 * bundles nb-javac (GPL-2-CP)
 * bundles a JDK (plain OpenJDK, Azul JDK, Corretto should all be GPL-
   2-CP)
 * bundles JavaFX (GPL-2-CP)

Greetings

Matthias
