Well, it seems there was not too much interest in this one.

First of all, Thanks for Matthias who reviewed the PR-s I've prepared.

Unfortunately I had a though week returning to work, so I was not near as effective as I thought, so I've got all the PR-s I'd include in this update ready only now.

Please check:

https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+milestone%3A12.0-u2


As on no real interest expressed here, I've dropped the idea to release a new binary for MacOS. I hope that'd be fine. I'm waiting fro the CI to give a green light on the PR-s. Individual reviews are also welcome.

The only thing, I'm unsure of is: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/2672 , please take a look, share your thoughts!

Dear all,

As we've said that 12.0 is an LTS, lets keep our word and create a second update release for that. I volunteer for the duty of Release Manager.

Please take a few minutes to look at the changes delivered in 12.1 and 12.2

https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pulls?q=milestone%3A12.1+is%3Aclosed+

https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pulls?q=milestone%3A12.2+is%3Aclosed+

Please mark all small, non-api, changes that you think worth to backport to 12.0, with "Cherry Pick" label .

Unreleased (marked for 12.3), trivial changes (like patching an NPE) could be marked as well.

Timeline (a tight one):

2nd - 8th of January: Mark the issues.

2nd - 9th of January: Create PR-s of 12.0-u2 (that would be mainly me, in some non trivial cases, if there would be any, I'll ask some members to help with that)

10th of January. Create a patch release. Start the vote on that.

13th of January. Close the vote.

13th+ Make the update public.


This would be an update release: the only binary I'm thinking of are the updated nbm-s. If there would be any demand we could do an updated MacOS binary as well, due to the Big Sur launcher issue. Though I would not include the wait with the announcement for that binary signed. It would be an eventful January anyway.

Opinions, feedbacks are welcome!
