Background

https://wiki.apache.org/incubator/NetBeansProposal

The initial goals of the NetBeans contribution under the Apache umbrella are to establish a new home for an already fully functioning project and to open up the governance model so as to simplify and streamline contributions from the community.

Tables below – green=complete, yellow=in progress, red=rejected/will not be done

Required Resources

Based on the NetBeans Proposal above, the following are the required resources for Apache NetBeans:

IDResourceDetailsAssigned ToStatusNotes
R01Mailing Listsdev, user, commits, and private @netbeans.apache.orgApache mentorsDone. More can be created as needed, though let's start with the Apache defaults. Also, we need to investigate migrating the archives of the existing NetBeans mailing lists, e.g., nbusers@netbeans.org.See T04 and T12.
R02WikiConfluence is being used as the Wiki.Apache mentors

Done: Unable to render Jira issues macro, execution error.

To be decided. The question is whether to migrate the existing NetBeans Wiki or to back it up and start again from scratch with a clean slate here.

To be done. Also, creating a clear structure is important.

See T06 and T09.
R03Website
Apache mentorsTo be done. netbeans.org needs to transition/link/redirect to/be supplemented by netbeans.apache.org (e.g., see maven.apache.org). A static website or CMS or something of some kind needs to be made available to support that.
R04Source ControlGit
Done. Mirrored on GitHub -- https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans
R05Issue Tracking

Done: Unable to render Jira issues macro, execution error.

To be decided. Bugzilla or JIRA (Done: JIRA – https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS.)

To be done. Migration with potential bugzilla NetBeans custom plugin

See T08
R06Release InfrastructureHudson/Jenkins, etc.

Done: 

https://builds.apache.org/view/M-R/view/NetBeans/


Special Infrastructure Requests

Based on the NetBeans Proposal above, the following are the Special Infrastructure Requests for Apache NetBeans:

IDRequestStatus
SIR01Migration of large existing Mercurial repository to Apache GitDone
SIR02 Migration of internal Oracle release infrastructure to Apache infrastructureDone
SIR03 Migration of Plugin Portal (plugins.netbeans.org) and related pluginsIn Progress
SIR04 Migration of website and related content management system to Apache infrastructureIn Progress
SIR05 Evaluation and identification of other NetBeans infrastructure to be migrated to Apache infastructuresDone

Further Resources

Not explicitly mentioned in the NetBeans Proposal, though referenced in SIR05 above, these resources and areas need to be considered too in the context of the transition. In many cases, there will be no impact, though at least "NetBeans" should be "Apache NetBeans", at least in first mention, where applicable. in the naming of the below.

Tasks

Based on the NetBeans Proposal above, the following are tasks that need to be completed during incubation. (Currently in no particular order.)

IDTaskDetailsReferenceAssigned ToStatusNotes
T01Sign iCLAIndividual committers to sign iCLA.https://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt, and check that your proposed id has not already been taken: http://people.apache.org/committer-index.htmlIndividual committers.

T02Sign cCLAFor individual committers that need corporate
backing, Apache has a cCLA that can be
signed. 		https://www.apache.org/licenses/cla-corporate.txtIndividual committers who need it.

T03Sign Software Grant AgreementOracle to sign Apache grant agreement.http://www.apache.org/licenses/cla-corporate.txt contains the Software Grant Agreement, a separate document should not be usedGeertjan

T04Invite subscribers to the NetBeans mailing lists to join the Apache NetBeans mailing lists. 

Multiple subtasks:

  • Write to nbusers etc and inform about new mailing lists.
  • Use the NetBeans newsletter.
  • Add automatic footer to mails to NetBeans mailing lists with new info.




T05Migration of source code.




T06Migration of Wiki (or start from scratch?)




T07Migration of tutorials.




T08Migration of bug tracker.




T09Create a structure for the Wiki.




T10Find a home for the Plugin Portal and plugins.Several organizations have indicated an interest in taking this on. Another option is Maven via Sonatype. Next steps: bundle up plugins and the app and send it to one or more interested organizations with instructions for setting everything up and find out how/if it works and choose the best location.



T11Create a page on Wiki or website listing all the committers, contributors, supporting organizations, etc. 




T12Mailing list archive migration.NetBeans.org mailing lists, e.g., nbusers@netbeans.org, have large archives that need to be considered for migration.



T13Brand donationThe brand donation is distinct from the software grant.

 Done.
