Thanks for this. I'd planned to start a thread on nb-javac after 12.1 is out, from a release manager perspective with 12.1 and 11.2 in particular. Obviously JDK schedule is important here, but so is ours, and with both 12.1 and particularly 11.2, the delay in integrating nb-javac for testing has caused real problems. I think, if we are to continue delivering nb-javac to NetBeans then we need to ensure support lands in master before freeze dates, ideally at least a couple of weeks before, so that teething problems can be ironed out before beta1. Which would leave us, by your schedule, needing nb-javac-15 to be ready for ~Oct 1st and nb-javac-15.2 to be ready for ~Feb 1st. Are those realistic? I'm not sure if we want to deliver nb-javac-15.1 - ideally we wouldn't need to push an update for it while it's packaged as currently. What's the thought behind that? Maybe we need to consider whether it can be delivered via plugin portal again, or if current discussions on CPE allow and we can guarantee it's all under CPE we might be able to ship directly in one module? With any of the above, it would be good to improve access to the source code and building instructions from a license compliance point-of-view.
