NetBeans on Snapcraft

[Wimpress]

Thank you for working on a Snap of NetBeans 9.0!

@lkishalmi

We would like to have a publisher as Apache NetBeans.

It is possible to create a brand account and then add other accounts (individuals or CI bots) as collaborators. We’re refactoring our documentation at the moment, but here are the links relevant to creating developer accounts:

• Create a developer account

As for creating a “brand account” and then adding collaborators to it, I wrote a little primer for that process here:

• Creating snap store brand accounts

We’re looking forward to working with you to promote the NetBeans Snap and something you can do to assist is to make the most of your store page, please see this blog post for some advice:

I think you mean you’d like a 9.0 track. You can learn more about tracks and channels here:

Here is the process for requesting a track:

We right now are doing a classic confinement package, due to several reasons.

This is almost certainly the correct confinement model, all IDEs are classic right now due to the need to execute arbitrary binaries on the host OS. You will need to request classic confinement and the process for doing that is here:
