> The mysql driver bundled with netbeans is licensed GPL and thus can't be distributed together with apache netbeans.
> The situation is similar to the oracle db drivers, for which driver templates, but no binaries are provided.
> It should be checked if a "on-demand download" option can be provided to make this easier for the end-user.
