It seems very explicit and all encompassing: "NetBeans: any source code, object code, patch, tool, sample, graphic, specification, manual, documentation, or any other material." Plus, maybe instead of referring to the netbeans.org domain, we should add at the end "that is currently under Oracle's control". I.e., the point is that Oracle is giving up control of everything related to NetBeans -- the description above covers 'everything' in the terms used right now in the OCA. I'm sure that if, instead of the above [or something similar to it], if we were going to make an explicit list, we'll leave something out, i.e., we'll forget about something and then have problems later. The above, on the other hand, encompasses everything.
