This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
To maintain a robust NetBeans platform you really need to be sending the NetBeans Girls to EclipseCon. A complete description of the issue and potential resolution can be found at http://ianskerrett.wordpress.com/2007/02/21/bring-back-the-netbeans-girls/
I am not a girl, but I'll be attending EclipseCon this year again. Indeed the Netbeans girls last year was a big hit. I can bring water if needed, and I'll be talking to the NetBeans evangelists to make sure we can close this bug (We do care about quality and the goal is to keep the bug number low, and the developer experience of the product *and* the developer conferences very good). I hope WTP 2.0 will be good enough for supporting our GlassFish Java EE 5 application server. WTP: Water Technology Platform. Ludo (https://ajax.dev.java.net , https://ajax.dev.java.net/eclipse )
I discussed this issue with my manager and we can send NetBeans girls to EclipseCon if you will cover all the expenses connected with this trip. Closing as WONTFIX unless Eclipse's marketing decides to pay for the trip, accommodation, meals and other related expenses.
Roman, shouldn't this be resolved at least as "REMIND" or "LATER"? WONTFIX sounds too much definitive. Have you tried to work with and convince Eclipse community to provide girls from their side? I'm pretty sure we can deliver NetBeans marketing materials from our side. What about Sun would provide Eclipse Girls for NetBeans Day in May?
REMIND or LATER states are not recommended by issuezilla guidelines. See: http://qa.netbeans.org/bugzilla/issue-lifecycle.html Closing again as WONTFIX.
