neilcsmith-net commented on issue #1538: Putting nb-javac NBM directly into the 
NetBeans distribution.
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/1538#issuecomment-536293032
 
 
   Thanks! Definitely a better way forward.  Some questions though -
   
   1. Are we aiming for 11.2 with this?  If so, could we merge for this week's 
beta so we have a chance to fix or revert if any issues arise?
   2. Can we then keep the existing plugin catalog from 11.0?  I assume this 
will override the nb-javac in that OK?
   3. Are there any implications for shipping an update to nb-javac if it 
proves necessary?
   4. @matthiasblaesing recently changed the OpenJFX setting for 
`AutoUpdate-Show-In-Client` to `true`. Do we want to make that change here too? 
 There are other reasons why it makes more sense there though, but it might be 
good to have it visible and controllable?
   5. Am I reading this right that it will continue to always install in the 
userdir even if the installation directory is writeable?  (I think it should)
   6. What are the feasibilities for actually moving this to Maven Central 
anyway?  That should be preferred if possible, and would be good to have the 
sources easily accessible alongside.  Or is it at least possible to have a 
source bundle adjacent to the binaries that we can link to for anyone who 
requests them?
   7. (with some selfish reasons :wink:, although I might not be the only one - 
possibly CoolBeans?) What, if any, implications are there for this change on 
anyone who wants to pre-include nb-javac in their build?
