I.e., there will be existing NetBeans services that Apache will not be hosting. The clearest case of this will be plugins.netbeans.org. That is a service that one or more individual contributors will take on, making use of the infrastructure of an organization they work for. I.e., if Apache is not going to host one or more services currently hosted by Oracle, and if those services are needed by NetBeans, something will need to be done to resolve the situation, which will be that the service will be hosted by someone else. An individual contributor could host plugins.netbeans.org on their own private server, of course, though an organization volunteering this service is a more likely and stable scenario. I am sure other Apache projects have similar arrangements and this will not be new for Apache in any way.
