Hi all, The Apache NetBeans community has voted on and approved a proposal to release Apache NetBeans 9.0 (incubating) [vc3].
We now kindly request that the Incubator PMC members review and vote on this incubator release candidate. Vote thread: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/a644bb8e3ba2cbd06328bb004f1b18b4171763cd3d78a9131615f687@%3Cdev.netbeans.apache.org%3E Vote result thread: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/31f8a8fd70dc2ba635c6a67693c512ed9e5b30af99fbe79afe55293b@%3Cdev.netbeans.apache.org%3E In the above, note there are two IPMC binding votes from Ate Douma and Bertrand Delacretaz, both Apache NetBeans (incubating) mentors, 11 PPMC votes and 16 Apache NetBeans community votes. Apache NetBeans 9.0 (incubating) constitutes all the modules in the Apache NetBeans Git repo, which together provide the NetBeans Platform (i.e., the underlying application framework), as well as all the modules that provide the Java SE-related features of Apache NetBeans. In short, Apache NetBeans 9.0 (incubating) is a full IDE for Java SE development.

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. If the above succeeds, vote +1 in this thread. Please try out the package, using the instructions above, and vote! The vote is open for 5 days.
