Description Antonin Nebuzelsky 2012-05-30 16:27:55 UTC
A request from a user:

To get the platform or a module's source code, this site refers to
http://netbeans.org/downloads/zip.html. There is only a list of ZIP files without
describing their content. To avoid downloading all ZIP files and let the user search, it would be nice, to add a short description near to the ZIP links. E.g., I thought, netbeans-.*-ml-platform.zip contains the platform's source (.*.java) files, but after downloading and unpacking it, I couldn't find any source file.
