Well,

So far there is no open blocker issue reported against NetBeans. Supporting an OS which just released to the public would be nice, but it wasn't really in the scope in the last 3 months.

As far as I knew the situation, some people reported weird rendering issues, which could be the JDK, and lately that our Mac installer does not work on BugSur, which have the work around of using our zip distribution.

These could be covered in the Release Notes. If we have real issues to act on, those could be fixed in 12.3 (must be reported first though)

Again, we are releasing the Source code. Though convenience binaries are important, we cannot be expected to support every new and shiny right after it is released.

So we are still on track with the 15th of November cut of 12.2 release.

I think we need to look at these new Mac related issues and shouldn’t release 12.2 until we have some response or plan around that.

    Dear Apache NetBeans community,

    The second, and hopefully final release candidate of Apache NetBeans
    12.2 is available.

    This one is fixing one blocker issue [NETBEANS-5007] No restart of
    language server after change of JDK home

    as of: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/2531

    Technically this codechange only affects the upcoming VSCode
    Extension,
    so our target date for cutting the release is still 15th of November.


    **The following rules are applied to the PR-s :**

    As this is a release candidate, if everything goes right the release
    build would be cut from the very same git commit as this one.

    Only fixes for blocker issues are allowed this time! The rules are
    the
    following:
    - The blocker issue, if found has to be announced and discussed on
    the
    developer mailing list first. Please note that if you have concern
    about
    the the licensing of some files/component please raise it now as
    those
    are considered blocking.
    - If there would be an eventual need of fix, please:
    - Mark the milestone as: 12.2
    - Please add me (lkishalmi) as an additional reviewer

    That would also indicate that we do another release candidate when
    the
    issue is fixed.

    I've merged all the changes happened for NetBeans12.2-rc2 to the
    master
    as well:
    - If you feel the PR is ready for 12.3 then mark that milestone
    - Add the usual reviewers
    - API/SPI changes are fine
    - Structural changes are welcome if needed

    If everything goes right the Next action would be the vote on the
    release from 15th of November!
