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.
There are three licenses mentioned on that page, Apache, BSD, GPL. Since netbeans is (was?) using a variant on MPL it would make a lot of sense to include it in this page.
Thanks for pointing this out - content in the /docs/ dir is actually provided by sourcecast (the infrastructure hosting nb.org); these are not our docs at all. Since legally we can *only* host SPL projects, this page is totally misleading here. I should either update or simply remove those docs, and replace them with pointers to the appropriate nb.org-specific content. In the meantime pls see http://www.netbeans.org/project/www/license.html for info about the SPL (based on MPL as you mention).
Target milestone was changed from not determined to TBD
Collab, pls advise what to do here - should we edit content under /docs/, or is that something Collab maintain ?
update: I asked template engineer and manager about your question, Jack. Action plan: monitor internal issue pcn 13706 for updates next update: 1/6, on Monday
Hi Jack, Here's an update from our manager/template engineer: 'current versions -2.5 and higher - of SC don't include a docs/TypicalLicenses.html page. Since domain licenses are now customizable, we only include information about adding/deleting licenses and not information about specific licenses themselves So, what I'd recommend is the following: - Remove the docs/TypicalLicenses.html page on their current site (along with references to that page in Help) - Don't worry about migrating this change in 2.5 as this page doesn't exist anymore' Thus our recommendation is to remove the page. If you want we could do it for you Jack. Please let us know. Thanks.
Thanks for the info. I'd be happy to remove it but the links pointing to it would then be broken. I'd suggest removing the links first - AFAIK they are in servlet generated pages like the project add servlet - perhaps step 2 of http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ProjectAddStep1 ? The only links to /docs/ content would be from SC content like the servlet above. If you could search for those links, remove them, and then remove the actual /docs/ page, that would be great. If I can do anything to help pls let me know. Thanks.
Hi Jack, I asked the template engineer to remove the page and also the links pointing to it. PCN 13706 next update: upon confirmation of page removal from template engineer.
update: template engineer made the following change: changed the references in: ProjectAddStep2.wm HelpTOC.wm ProjectEdit.wm ProjectAddStep2.html and removed: TypicalLicenses.html action plan: ask Jack to confirm next update: upon confirmation
Looks fine, thanks.
closing the resolved fixed task issues..
