Victor Williams Stafusa da Silva updated NETBEANS-516:
------------------------------------------------------
Description:
As discussed in the dev mailing list, currently if Netbeans is installed in a
computer with multiple user accounts, a different set of configurations will be
created for each account. This means that each user will have his/her own set
of Netbeans plugins and maven repository.
However, this situation might be undesirable. This means that many plugins
would be download and installed in duplicate by different users. This also
means that, for two users, maven repositories might be duplicated consuming
double network traffic to be populated and double disk space.
Security is a reason to mantain these configuration separation between
different users. However, the user might not want that and instead would like
to share his/her workspace with other users in the same computer. So, an option
asking if Netbeans files should be stored in user private space or in shared
space should be provided.
