Re: AW: [news] NetCAT 9.0 proposal

2018-02-23 Thread Jiří Kovalský
I share the same opinion. For me personally quality is the most precious 
feature. I know that we all have been waiting for NetBeans 9.0 for more 
than a year now but good things need time. ;)


Regarding release frequency, we should release only when it makes sense 
i.e. when a set of interesting new features is implemented together with 
a handful of critical bug fixes. Let's not follow the modern but insane 
corporate paranoia: "We must get it out quickly otherwise competition 
will be far ahead!" which only leads to frustration and disappointment 
both among development teams and end users.


We are true open source project now! I don't want to go back to date 
driven release trains at all cost.

Same here. Stability first. Once we've got that down, then I'd favor a 
release schedule of 3-6 months.

My personal opinion:
-NetBeans IDE should run on JDK 10
-ideally it should be possible to have a (J2SE/Maven) project using 
JDK 10
as well, including support for var (shouldn't be difficult, see the 
jdk18_3
branch in the official repository; depends on whether we can add a 
feature

like this at this stage).
-the NetBeans IDE itself can't use JDK 9/10 features, as it still should
run on JDK 8.
-for applications based on NetBeans platform, the build system currently
does not (AFAIK) support JDK 9/10, but if someone wanted to work on 
that, I

think it would be useful.

Looking forward to an awesine first Apache NetCat..

P.S.  Is Synergy already hosted on Apache infrastructure?

Hello NetBeans community,

    now that we have Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta officially released to

public

we would like to start our traditional Beta testing program called

NetCAT.
We would like to send out the official invitation on Monday - 
February

26th
but before we proceed Hermien and me would like to present our 
plan how
NetCAT 9.0 will be organized and ask for constructive feedback. 
Please

bear
in mind to voice your concerns by the end of this week. We will 
attempt

to
address your questions or suggestions but we still hope you will 
simply

like what we have prepared. :)

Here we go:

1. NetCAT 9.0 will roughly take 10 weeks i.e. ~2 months. We 
allocated 2
weeks for review of test specifications, followed by 4 weeks of 
testing

and

bug fixing phase, at the end finished by 3 week long community

acceptance

survey. For more details see our projected schedule [1].

2. The testing will be tracked in Synergy - NetBeans test 
specification
and test run management system. NetCAT 9.0 participants will be 
divided

into 9 tribes focusing on one of 9 crucial functionality areas each.

3. We have drafted quality criteria [2] which we would like to 
meet for

the GA release. In short, we aim to fix all blocker issues, fix or

waive
all critical issues and fix all CA blockers. We would also like to 
take
votes into account as you can read in the Bug Priority Guidelines 
[3].


4. Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta will be primarily tested on latest JDK 8

and

JDK 10.
