I have to say that although I don't have the Java required to make much
of a contribution in the way of code, when I do find a project I'd like
to work on, those pages of open bugs are the first place I look for some
way to get up to speed on contributing. They might look like they're
being ignored, but they're a great resource for people who want to get
involved.
Besides, I'm always hopeful that some new contributor will pick up an
issue I created, resulting in some minor irritation being magically
fixed in the next release.
At the same time, I've had Ty's experience, although not with Netbeans.
It's disappointing to see a issue tagged wontfix / closed without even a
comment years after it was filed.

Here's where you do that:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS
I'll be honest, unless I'm confident that someone is actually
going to fix the bug I don't usually report them. It's not worth
my time, or the people who will inevitably do janitor work by
closing ignored bug reports, to file these. There are already 5(or
more) pages so it doesn't exactly stir confidence that anyone is
fixing them.
Which, to be clear, is fine. I'm not making a big stink here and
demanding anyone fix anything. I'm just saying that it's not worth
anyone's time if there is no interest in it nor is it worth create
yet another account online in which may have a data breach in the
future.
Anyway, I've signed up and filed, which you commented on:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS/issues/NETBEANS-4233?filter=allopenissues

Bit of a PSA for those that don't build the
in-development(15, right
now) from source, Modular Ant based projects WILL NOT
compile, failing on:
Unable to create javax script engine for javascript
which then points to:
<j2semodularproject1:modsource_regexp
xmlns:j2semodularproject1="http://www.netbeans.org/ns/j2se-modular-project/1";
modsource="${test.src.dir.path}"
property="have.tests.test.src.dir.regexp"/>
I'm guessing this has something to do with Nashorn's removal
since
building spams the console with deprecation and removal
warnings for it
in previous JDK builds. Non modular Ant based projects seem
to still
compile, at least compiling a newly created project still works.
Guess it's time to move to Maven...
And no, Netbeans 12 doesn't make a difference.
