Hi,

I know the vote is over but you may want to fix this issues I noticed before 
the next release:
- How are these wav files licensed? [8]
- Looks like you make have a dependancy on a 4 clause BSD license. [9] That’s 
Category X and not allowed.

BTW I would of voted -1 on this release as it contains compiled source code

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) rc3

[Mark Struberg]

That's a practical issue and not a legal one I'd say.

But yes, finally I'd suggest to use different maven coordinates in the future 
at least.
Otoh we do not even require that this file is on maven.central. 
Just downloadable form a private http page or on github would be perfectly 
enough FROM A LEGAL POV.

We really have to split the legal stuff from the point of providing 
reproducible artifacts. 
In a long term this would not be from the later aspect. 
But look e.g. at OpenJPA and Geronimo. Over there we use privately released 
serp artifacts since a decade. I'm _not_ happy with that neither and would love 
to switch fully over to ASM for example. But legally it's not a problem.
The same was happening in Maven with the various artifacts hosted at Codehaus 
or Eclipse.
Far from perfect from a community perspective. But LEGALLY it's ok.

So I totally agree that NetBeans has to adress this in the future. But it imo 
doesn't block this release, isn't it?

LieGrue,
strub

 My impression from this issue is that the previous RC included a binary 
 jar that was mostly EPL 1.0 but had at least one file that no one knew the 
 origin, contents, or license of.  I don’t see that any progress has been 
 made on this issue, has the jar been removed from the new RC?  I just 
 scanned a couple of the links below but didn’t see any mention of this.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) rc3

[David Jencks]

Since the pull request was made about 8 hours ago, am I correct in thinking 
that the rc3 candidate still includes the jar with unknown contents and 
provenance?

Mark, how could an EPL 1.0 jar with an AL 2 patch applied be uploaded to maven 
central? For one thing, what would the maven coordinates be?

Thanks

 Hi all,
 
 The Apache NetBeans community has voted on and approved a proposal to
 release Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) rc3.
 
 We now kindly request that the Incubator PMC members review and vote
 on this incubator release candidate.
 
 Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) constitutes all the modules
 currently in the Apache NetBeans Git repo, which together provide the
 NetBeans Platform (i.e., the underlying application framework), which
 was released as Apache NetBeans 9.0 Alpha (incubating), as well as all
 the modules that provide the Java SE-related features of Apache
 NetBeans. In short, Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) is a full
 IDE for Java SE development.
 
 Just like the Alpha release, the Beta release is focused specifically
 on IP clearance. With Beta, everything in Apache NetBeans Git complies
 with Apache IP clearance requirements:
 
 https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Apache+NetBeans+9.0+Beta
 
 Changes between rc1 and rc2 -- binaries wrongly included in source zip
 have been removed:
 
 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-276
 
 Changes between rc2 and rc3 -- problems identified by the rc2 IPMC
 vote by IPMC members Justin Mclean and John D. Ament have been solved
 or issues have been created:
 
 https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Apache+NetBeans+9.0+Beta+rc3
 
 https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/8e9520d5e1e365ed2337940fb629c209c63efae24b0a2e44d50412a3@%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E
 
 How to try out the Beta release:
 
 1. Download the artifact to be voted on and unzip it.
 2. Build it using the README provided by the artifact.
 3. Look in nbbuild/netbeans for the NetBeans installation created by
 the build process.
 4. Run the NetBeans executable and (if you're running on JDK 8) you'll
 be prompted to install nb-javac, after agreeing to its licensing
 terms, and (if you're running on JDK 9), you'll be able to use javac
 directly from JDK 9 and, optionally, you'll be prompted to install
 nb-javac, after agreeing to its licensing terms.
 
 Take note of the Apache Rat exclusions, which are now in a separate file:
 
 https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/blob/master/nbbuild/rat-exclusions.txt
 
 If the above succeeds, i.e., Apache NetBeans installs and starts up,
 you will have a Java SE development environment that complies with
 Apache IP requirements.

[Mark Struberg]

I think this is reasonably enough for this release. 

We should keep an eye on it and probably someone can upload a fixed release to 
maven.central.

I've also checked the other parts and found no obvious problem

So 

+1 (binding)

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache NetBeans 9.0 Beta (incubating) rc3

[David Jencks]

What happened to 
LEGAL-361 
?

My impression from this issue is that the previous RC included a binary jar 
that was mostly EPL 1.0 but had at least one file that no one knew the origin, 
contents, or license of.  I don’t see that any progress has been made on this 
issue, has the jar been removed from the new RC?  I just scanned a couple of 
the links below but didn’t see any mention of this.
