Hi all, Not directly relevant since this is relevant to the functioning of the convenience binary, but it might be interesting from an informative point of view for all to know that the Apache NetBeans (incubating) community has done a Community Acceptance survey [1] for users of the upcoming Apache NetBeans (incubating) 9.0. I.e., the survey is about the usage and functionality of the convenience binary of the voting candidate under consideration in this thread and the results are documented below.
