For everyone else, there was a very brief off-list discussion on this amongst a few who've been doing web related things - I'm just reposting my questions from that - On Thu, 23 Aug 2018 at 04:53, Geertjan Wielenga <[email protected]> wrote: > From our point of view, what do we need to know, how can we most smoothly do > the switch, what kind of process is needed? A reverse question. How long could / is Oracle willing to host what is there? Just because the trademark, domain, etc. move to Apache doesn't mean everything has to move at that time. The DNS settings could still point back to Oracle hosting for all, then select, subdomains. In my opinion this should be seen as the start of the transition of some of those things, and done section by section over 6-12 months. I think that approach was discussed initially? What, if anything, is Oracle's wish / responsibility in keeping old NetBeans 8.2 and earlier code and updates up? We could do with clarifying Apache rules on hosting archived older versions of Apache projects under previous license and copyright. I think I posted a quote from somewhere recently that suggests we could host the old source and binary bundles on Apache infra, which would be ideal.
