For me, that's a perfect splash screen. The majority of those in the discussion on Twitter preferred that splash screen over the alternative. We can change the splash screen for each release, so this is not necessarily the one we're committing to forever. In short, I think this one is ideal and we

Yeah. I feel that so much damage to the NetBeans brand has been done in the last year just because of that transition that's it's better to release at least something. Even re-releasing 8.2 with no changes and naming it 8.3 would be good at this point.. I might be wrong of course. On Mon, May 21,

Yes, I would also expect something like Apache NetBeans 9.0 IDE. Otherwise I think it's good that the splashscreen remains consistent with the new logo. -Jirka Dne 21.5.2018 v 10:15 John McDonnell napsal(a): Hi, I'm not a fan of the wording but to me, it reads like NetBeans IDE Apache v9.0

A bit off-topic, but my experience all over the world is that there's a lot of excitement about the NetBeans brand now. Far more people from around the world are involved in the development of NetBeans today than there have ever been in the entire history of NetBeans. :-) Gj On Mon, May 21, 2018

I like the new splash screen. Regarding what Daniel Gruno said, this is important. We need a unifying style that covers not only the icon and splash screen but goes all the way to icons, color palette, fonts, start page, layout, etc. Of course, doing such a task well is non-trivial even for a d

It should indeed be Apache NetBeans IDE, followed by the release number, i.e., 9.0. However, should "incubating" also be included, i.e., it would then be Apache NetBeans IDE (incubating) 9.0. We need to get this sorted so we can prepare the final release candidate. Thanks, Gj On Wed, May 23,
