I don’t know how :-(

I can log in to Synergy.. (It’s been a long time)
...but I don’t know how to migrate the test specs to NB 12.0 and edit them.

Lou Dasaro “owns" the JavaFX spec, but I don’t think he is around.  I can help 
update them, but I don’t want to commit to “owning" them as I know my time will 
be limited. I think maybe I need to be the owner to edit the spec?

I tried to find anything about NetCat or Synergy in the wiki at 
https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/index.asciidoc 
<https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/index.asciidoc> without success.
