Hi Cowwoc, At the moment NetBeans in migrating over to Apache, and in the latter half of 2017, the first initial code drop took place containing the NetBeans platform and the basic Java modules, etc... As a result the old codebase stored in Oracle, i.e. https://netbeans.org/community/sources/ is no longer applicable for use since the more up to date changes are happening in the code base found: https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans
This means the daily builds should be taken from here: https://builds.apache.org/view/Incubator%20Projects/job/incubator-netbeans-release/ In relation to the exception reporter I believe there was some discussion about this, but I cannot seem to find it on the mailing lists, so maybe I'm imagining this. But your right, something will need to be done about this. Please check out the new daily builds and please file any defects against the JIRA link previously provided. - If there are any high profile defects that might block you please report them as soon as possible thanks.
