Thanks! The two YouTube videos, especially JavaOne 2017,were exactly the kind of reference that I was asking for in my original question.

In addition, some cases individual people have put their own name in the copyright area in which case we need to track them down to make sure the related code really belongs to Oracle. In other cases there is no license at all and then we need to determine the ownership of that file. Similarly for the images. The bottom line is Oracle cannot donate that which does not belong to Oracle and in the 20 years or so of NetBeans existence a lot of non compliant things may or may not have happened. The 1st donation, done last year, was about 45000 files which was about 4000,000 lines of code. The 2nd donation, which we’re working on right now, is smaller, about 1.500.000 lines of code. This is a massive process and it’s amazing that we’re as far as we are. But you could also simply go to the Apache NetBeans blog where you’ll find two YouTube clips, one from Devoxx 2017, the other from JavaOne 2017, where everything is explained. Please do that — watch those YouTube clips and don’t immediately respond with more questions.

So let me ask something more specific. On the page you reference there is something like Acceptance of Apache Software Grant Agreement 1. Done: 1st code donation 2. In process: 2nd code donation In this context, does the word donation refer to just sending the code over? Or the entire process of code review, delivering it to Apache hardware, acceptance by the Apache PMC, acquisition of a number of volunteers to continue to maintain development, installation of the firmware on a Apache server, and integration of that new code into the existing project? That page you referenced also has words like this. 1. Done: code written in the above clusters (for example. related to Java 9 features) written since the review process started. Is there any additional information about what kind of review is done by Oracle personal before the code is handed over to Apache? What is meant by “review”. Is it just a matter of checking to make sure there is no proprietary material left in the code before it is donated? If so, how is that accomplished.

It is probably more complicated than going to the Java group and saying “Pack all your source code in a zip file and send it to Apache. Tell them to write a script to remove our name from every source file and add theirs if they want”. On the other hand you make it sound like there were lawyers pouring over every line of source to make sure there is no liability to releasing it.

If that is Oracle's secret plan to kill NetBeans by making it unusable for professional development, it's working. Is there at least a time frame on why Oracle wants to donate that?

What is the best way to run this project in netbeans? I found some things on the internet, but they seem out of date or not quite what I want. Can I run this as a Node.js application and with the correct project properties, have netbeans run “ng serve”? Thanks! Mark Claassen Senior Software Engineer
