I'm salivating at the thought of running NetBeans on a recent jdk and
work on old gradle version projects.
For testing, is it possible and simple to have a nb16u1 update center,
which I can manually add locally?

Dear all,
This is a kind of notice / discussion.
Frequent visitors of GitHub might notice, that I've created a new
Milestone NB16u1. There are a handful of important fixes in our Gradle
Support that would improve the Gradle/JDK compatibility. I think those
are important, as some of them are fixing regressions.
It's a bit unfortunate that these fixes have arrived late of our NB16
release phase. They could be annoying, but I would not stop the
release train on them. So I've decided to step up and create an
unusual patch release for NB16. I would like it to keep this update
release low profile, so we could deliver it ASAP.
Some things to know:
* Created a branch for this named: release161
* The milestone is NB16u1
* I'm going to create PR-s against the new branch, by cherry-picking
PR-s landed on master.
* Once done, there would be (hopefully) one vote round on the whole
source release zip.
* NB16u1 will be delivered trough our Update Center. (Of course, the
zip source distribution would be available, but the convenience
binary would be just the nbm package)
* I would steer this small update release as an RM, if there would be
no objection.
Current PR candidates to be included in NB16u1:
* https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/5014
* https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/4995
* https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/4984
* https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/4985
Also I hope that there would be a fix for this as well:
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/5015
As usual feedback is welcome!
