Given python is one of the most prominent languages in use in the real
world, I would assume there would be a demand for it.
I've tried many times over the course of the last few years to take on some
of this, but it's always ended up ("wait for donation 6" - the status of
which is listed below) or start over [with LSP].
This email thread was coming from the prospect of the "NBPython" team
donating things....but I've not heard much from anyone in the past so this
was a last attempt (before doing any future python work on VS Code,
Eclipse, or IntelliJ)
The http://nbpython.org/ site has not seen much movement since around 2015
from what I can tell.
There seemed to be some activity at some point on sourceforge but beyond
that not much
https://sourceforge.net/projects/nbpython/
There may be a snapshot of code still available here
https://sourceforge.net/p/nbpython/mercurial/ci/default/tree/
But once again it comes to approval / licensing from relevant authors to
approve of this...
And should it be integrated into Netbeans proper or managed independently.
