NetBeans has installers, and those installers inevitably bake in some things. ATM they provide both Tomcat and Glassfish. I assume that could be changed to TomEE or what ever, but would like to know what limits to bundling of various binaries there are during build time to build artifacts. Too, is it possible to provide an installer which bundles as part of its runtime, to run on the host operation system, a JRE, or is this problematic? What about an installation which installs a JDK for the user (combo installers)? Is there any precedence for this with other Apache projects? I’m not sure this matters for incubation, but would like to know what we’ll be able to do going forward as a community member who likes students and new programmer users to be able to get up and running quickly without having to have as many pre-requisites; this is handy for trainers as well.
