Hi all,
Please vote on releasing Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) rc3! If
this voting passes, another similar voting will be started on
gene...@incubator.apache.org, and if that passes too, then we can
release this version.
Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) constitutes all the modules in
the Apache NetBeans Git repo, which together provide the NetBeans
Platform (i.e., the underlying application framework), which was
released as Apache NetBeans 9.0 Alpha (incubating), as well as all the
modules that provide the Java SE-related features of Apache NetBeans.
In short, Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) is a full IDE for Java
SE development.

Apache+NetBeans+9.0+Beta+rc3
How (and what) to try out the Beta release:
1. Download the artifact to be voted on and unzip it.
2. Build it using the README provided by the artifact.
3. Look in nbbuild/netbeans for the NetBeans installation created by
the build process.
4. Run the NetBeans executable and (if you're running on JDK 8) you'll
be prompted to install nb-javac, after agreeing to its licensing
terms, and (if you're running on JDK 9), you'll be able to use javac
directly from JDK 9 and, optionally, you'll be prompted to install
nb-javac, after agreeing to its licensing terms.
If the above succeeds, i.e., Apache NetBeans installs and starts up,
you will have a development environment that complies with Apache IP
requirements and you should vote +1 in this thread. Bugs you encounter
are irrelevant for the Beta release, after Beta, when the final
release is put together, the bug fixing will begin via the NetCAT
program.
Please try out the package, using the instructions above, and vote!
The vote is open for a minimum of 72 hours or until the necessary
number of votes (3 binding +1s) is reached.
[ ] +1 Release this package as Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating)
[ ] 0 I don't feel strongly about it, but I'm okay with the release
[ ] -1 Do not release this package because...
Please add "(binding)" if your vote is binding, i.e., you are an
Apache NetBeans committer, i.e., your name is on this page:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__wiki.apache.org_incubator_NetBeansProposal&d=DwIF-g&c=RoP1YumCXCgaWHvlZYR8PZh8Bv7qIrMUB65eapI_JnE&r=I_-Y15BecdUmuYLJbvbi0hFUs7JgHZnV_jPFSP8DQF0&m=dsnspPQLdicpXpLzkrJf9wsyYGyHE58DZrbZixl17Qc&s=ci_pOZHlCKjl23gqNjzYmBFVo8jysymIG6ZHrwao7DY&e=,
although note the
only real binding votes in the incubator are those of the IPMC, i.e.,
in the next vote thread, after this one passes.
