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?
