Dear all,

I'd like to summarize whet happened on the "API Friendliness" issue:

We collected a number of possible options on our previous discussions at:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Public+vs+Friend+API

Commenting these options remained really silent though. This means our Friend APIs most likely stay as they are now.

I must acknowledge that adding new friends to an existing API is easier than ever having NetBeans under Apache umbrella.

I plan not to give up on making some APIs public though. Regarding the low interest of making something big around this area, I think the most viable solution is:

Option 4: Make Module Public when There is more than a Certain Number of Friend Dependencies.

So sometime in the future I'm going to create a list of how many friends a module does have and share the list with you.


Thank you all who participated in this effort!

Laszlo Kishalmi
