Dear colleagues, I am pushing PR-536 forward while I am on vacation and I am free to do what I love:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/536 I believe the goal of the change is sound: we want to cleanup the enormously large root directory to be GitHub & newcomers friendly. Structuring the source code per clusters is a natural way to do it. I've just updated the PR to reflect current changes in master. It is ready to be integrated. On the other hand, this is just a first step towards the ultimate goal. The change only moves `platform` and `harness` modules. However I am afraid that next week I'll be forced to return back to my regular duties and I will not have the capacity to convert more clusters or to keep my branch up-to-date with further changes in the master branch. It is very painful to keep track with bigger master changes and merge files in different locations properly. As such I'd like to integrate just this part and leave the rest for later and for you guys. I hope Junichi will handle php, Jan Lahoda could do java cluster and hopefully I talk somebody into doing the ide cluster. Volunteers are indeed more than welcomed! Once the change is integrated, you'll need Apache NetBeans 9.0 to work with the NetBeans sources. I assume that shouldn't be a problem - we all love to use the latest release, right? Thanks for your contributions to Apache NetBeans and your support of this per- cluster source re-organization change.
