We have continually running NetBeans Days. The next one will be in London, Athens, Bangalore, San Francisco, and Montreal.
Must we get clearance for each of these events? Ideally, I think, we should try ultimately to merge as much as possible with official Apache events, i.e., have NetBeans sessions during ApacheCon and so on, i.e., wherever an Apache event happens is where we should include NetBeans content. That has the benefit of the NetBeans being able to bring its community into the Apache fold, while being able to benefit from its organizational structures etc. Is there a list of upcoming Apache conferences where we could submit content? Could there be something like a NetBeans track at Apache conferences? At the same time, would be great to have clearance for the various events we have planned, which are basically "meetups", i.e., just like probably many other Apache projects have meetups, NetBeans Days are simply meetups too. Does each meetup of an Apache project require a special clearance process?
