Hi,

I have voted using the template, I think we should rephrase it somewhow. It's too verbose to clearly understand.

Maybe next time we want to clarify what are mandatory actions (should I check signatures of the main thing being voted on? Any others?) and optional ones.

A clear checklist would indeed help, something like this:

[ ] Mandatory: Check that https://...../netbeans.zip is well signed.
        1. Download https://...KEYS.
        2. Use "gpg --import KEYS" to import gpt keys.
        3. Download https://....netbeans.asc
        4. Verify using "gpg --verify netbeans.asc netbeans.zip"
[ ] Mandatory: Check that netbeans.zip compiles
        1. Unzip netbeans.zip somewhere.
        2. Run "ant" there.
        3. Run "ant tryme" there.
[ ] Optional: Build a Maven app to print "Hello, World!" to the console
        1. You know how to do this.

Or something like that.

The easier we make this to understand for friday-night, very-tired, eyestrained voters the more the voters we're gonna have.

Cheers,
Antonio

P.S.: I don't know how to test maven artifacts / vscode. Can take a look at the generated files, though.
