Hi Eric/Geertjan, I was looking at whats involved here and I believe, we need someone with an Apple Developer Account which requires a yearly subscription fee of €99.
Is there an "Apache", or "Apache NetBeans" Apple Developer Account, that was used previously? With this account, you gain access to a "Developer ID Installer" certificate which I'm guessing is the same as an "Apple Developer Installer Certificate" as that is mentioned in [1], and I have found no record of this listed anywhere... Whose certificate was used for the 11.X releases? Was this a personal one or an Apache/NetBeans certificate?
