Hello,

I believe all the Incubation changes will take a serious toll on our users
if we have to change the mailing lists, drop the forums, move the wiki and
use another main website.

It seems essential to me to use the netbeans.org domain and preserve as
much of the site / links as possible.

OpenOffice for example uses the https://www.openoffice.org/ website: we
should follow the same path!

The way I see it, NetBeans is not just a developer library or tool, it's
also a product. So, we have different categories of users, unlike, say,
Apache Commons IO. We will be hurting ourselves as a product with so many
drastic changes.

The transition should be smooth: existing and new users should not see
anything new except the good news that we are under Apache now!
