At this point I ask anyone with concerns or questions that haven't
been addressed so far and would prevent us from voting on this
proposal to chime in.

Based on the discussions in this thread we have added Mark Struberg
and Jim Jagielski to the proposal as mentors. Daniel Gruno mentioned
the need for someone from ASF infra as a mentor, if needed it's easy
to add a mentor later, or Daniel just confirm if you want to join.
Emmanuel Lécharny was unsure and hasn't confirmed AFAICS, he can also
be removed from the list later on easily if he wants to leave, that's
no big deal.

I have changed the SIR03 special infrastructure requirement (migration
of plugins.netbeans.org) to exclude it from the incubation process as
discussed here - we have envisioned possible solutions and realized
that incubating NetBeans is not necessarily dependent on that, and I
think the project can address this in due time.

One potential caveat is that plugins.netbeans.org, which is currently hosted by Oracle, will have to remain active as is, at least for the time being.
But the transfer of the netbeans.org domain to the ASF also is part of the 
proposal.
So, how will that work, and can (and will) Oracle remain hosting and managing it while the domain ownership has moved to Apache?
Or maybe the domain transfer needs to be postponed, for this one reason?

Furthermore, AFAICT all of the netbeans.org portal is hosted/running on Kenai.
And Kenai is slated to be shutdown by Oracle next year April.
So one way or the other, we (Apache, NetBeans project) will need to think of how to play this out.


Are there other things to discuss that might affect our vote on
accepting NetBeans?

I'm planning to start the vote in about 24 hours unless things still
need to be discussed.
