Actually, as I understand 'ti' GPL will never weaken the license to be
circulated with permissive licenses, e.g.
- Apache
- MIT
- BSD
- ...etc.
I don't think this is a big thing. GCC isn't donated to Apache (GPL that
it is, etc.) and there's lots of other things including plugins wit
Understood and good discussion. I figured the licensing would be an issue.
When launching netbeans v9+ and downloading all the additional stuff, are
all of the additional downloads stored somewhere in the netbeans folder
(whereever the zip was unzipped to) or are they stored elsewhere, such as

IntelliJ is not distributed by Apache. NetBeans is distributed by Apache.
Apache does not allow distribution of GPL code or binaries. The Java
compiler is GPL licensed.

Oracle already has "donated" it in a way because of the openjdk project.
Nb-javac is just an extension of the javac distributed with added extras to
make ide's able to parse the results of compiling better (that's my take).
Intelij does a similar thing, presumably based on the openjdk code.

No, that's the point. It will never be donated to Apache. It belongs to
Oracle. Oracle is never going to donate its Java compiler, or forks
thereof, to anybody.

You might try CoolBeans ( https://coolbeans.xyz/ ) which bundles
almost everything. Sadly I missed a tiny library so you still need to
download this nbm for HTML5 projects

Because, for example, in the case of Java support in Apache NetBeans, the
nb-javac compiler belongs to Oracle and is GPL licensed and hence cannot be
distributed by Apache. You need to install it yourself, i.e., i
And consider using http://coolbeans.xyz if this is a problem for whatever
reason.

For what it's worth, I often have to install netbeans on computers that are
not connected to the internet. In v8.2 and prior, I could download the EE
version and have everything I need to get up and running (except for maven
dependencies and any additional netbeans plugins). Maven dependencies can
