I really like the way how IntelliJ does it, it is very user friendly and we also have the first dialog which is „Import Settings“. This could be a good place to do more custom stuff.
What Neil mean is the dialog, if you open NetBeans, for the first time, twice. There is this „would you like to send statistics“ dialog after NetBeans is fully opened. And I think it is to late to change things there while we need to restart NetBeans. I prefer to do it as soon as possible to not restart NetBeans again. Von: Eric Bresie Gesendet: Donnerstag, 25.

I still think some additional customization wouldn’t be the end of the world. When setting up as I recall (see below link for specifics) there is the following dialogs: (1) customize dialog (1a) select specific packs/runtimes (2) licenses (3) Netbean home and JDK home (4) Summary/check for update For that matter could just as easily open up the Options to allow some customization and/or Plugins dialog during install? For that matter IntelliJ allows look and feel customization at setup. It’s not completely unjustified.
