I was talking about references to Kotlin like (1),(3),(5). As I understand it, there is some basic functionality (highlight/coloring, editing), some of which involved a Kotlin plugin originally developed by JetBrain (4) which was not being maintained and was being donated to the Apache Netbeans group. Based on the PR (2), it seems like it was accepted but not sure if it was in a branch or in mainline Netbeans master.
