Awesome! If you can help with testing the GUI Builder we would actually 
very much appreciate it.


In order to participate we will need your JIRA account, Synergy account, 
version and distro of your Linux, CPU & RAM configuration, minimal 
weekly availability and tribe of your choice. See here:

Thanks Chuck!

I’ve now heard from several people who’re concerned they’re not
skilled enough to participate in NetCAT. Please put that concern
aside. You’ll join a NetCAT tribe, based on your feature of choice
in NetBeans, and the tribe leader will guide you through the
process. It’s really not rocket science and you’ll be surprised how
useful your feedback will be.

Being recently retired  I have some time on my hands.

I am not an expert at anything but if somebody wants to hold my hand and
tell me what to do -- I'll try.

I've used the GUI builder substantially in the past but have moved on to FX
for my apps.  I need to learn how Maven works -- it's a big mystery.

I'm willing to work anywhere something is needed.  I am willing to do all
the sign-ups if there is something somebody would like me to do.

I've been a freeloader for a lot of years.  If I can give back that would
be awesome.

Apache NetBeans needs you...

2018-03-07 Thread Geertjan Wielenga
Hi all,

We're starting the final stage before the official first release of Apache
NetBeans.

Now is the time to get involved. Now is the time to test features and raise
issues -- not afterwards, when it is too late, but now.

There are hundreds of people on this mailing list.

Could you spare at least an hour or two per week for the next few weeks to
try out the Beta release and provide feedback?

There's an official process -- and it is as light and simple as could be.
Read about it here:

Thanks and let's make the first official Apache NetBeans release truly
great!
