It's trivial to support contributions in the interim. Work on the donated modules will happen in the canonical Apache repository while work on the rest of the modules will happen in the Oracle repository. At the end you convert the whole Mercurial repository and re-apply all the patches. Alterna

By the way do you have any photos from there? We could use them to promote the whole thing and support that NetBeans is getting from conferences and community. Might give the same idea to others. Just post on FB or twitter Cheers On Tue, Feb 28, 2017 at 8:17 PM, Zoran Sevarac wrote: > Sounds gr
