Hi,
The first release candidate build for Apache NetBeans 26 is available (links below). Changes since NetBeans 25 can be seen at https://github.com/apache/netbeans/releases/tag/26-rc1 Please help with testing, and file issues in GitHub as necessary - https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues If you're a committer adding an issue, or helping triage an issue (please do!), add the milestone and/or priority labels as appropriate. Use priority:high for should be fixed before release, priority:critical for must be fixed before we can release. **The following rules are applied to pull requests from now until release:** Please read the full info on how we manage pull requests to delivery at least once! - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Pull+requests+for+delivery PR's intended to be included in the 26 release : - Limited to fixes (link an issue if there is one, or provide justification in description) - Label with priority:high or priority:critical as appropriate. - Base on the delivery branch. - Mark with NB26 milestone. - Will be merged by the release team. PR's with features for a future release : - Base on the master branch. - Will be reviewed and merged in the usual way. - If possible stay away from big refactoring. - If possible do not overlap with fixes for 25 (delivery will be merged to master weekly).
