Fair question. On the other hand, we're clearly not in a position yet to do anything with those files, even if they were to come in today -- we clearly have more than enough work to do just on the code from the 1st donation.
That being said, we've restructured the subsequent donations such that we can focus specifically on the parts we care most about right now -- Java EE, JavaScript/HTML, PHP, and Groovy: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Apache+Transition At the end of the above link, notice 5e, which is the focus of the 2nd donation -- we've moved C++-related clusters to the third code donation so that we can get especially the Java EE and JavaScript/HTML features over to Apache as quickly as possible. The reason for the delays is simply a question of resourcing and conflicting work assignments coming in the paths of those working on this. However, again, I must say I'm happy we don't have the 2nd code donation yet right now -- we'd be swamped, we'd have a significant number of additional files we'd need to wade through while right now we have plenty of files to wade through as it is.
