The Gradle support that will be in the next release of Apache NetBeans is completely different to the well known NetBeans Gradle plugin. In other words, two different Gradle plugins have been created, Laszlo's one needs to be explored by all Gradle users to see whether it makes sense, opens your projects, works correctly, etc. I.e., you will not need to install a separate Gradle plugin and the support that there will be is different to what the Gradle plugin provides.
Anyway, best is to download the latest build and simply open your existing projects and see what happens -- and report back here, and if there are problems please provide a reproducible scenario ideally via a project on GitHub: https://builds.apache.org/job/incubator-netbeans-linux/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/nbbuild/ Thanks!
