Emilian Bold commented on NETBEANS-163:
---------------------------------------

According to our mentors, we just need a disclaimer instead. I've updated this issue.

> According to our mentors we can keep the Plugin Portal ( [https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/752f1b027c6ec62ea29fc077079c89647ef323381280e0ca506542b3@%3Cdev.netbeans.apache.org%3E] ) but we might need a disclaimer:
> bq. Providing a way to install non-Apache plugins at runtime is fine IMO, as long as there's no confusion regarding their provenance.
> bq. NetBeans should have a visible disclaimer that such plugins are not endorsed by Apache and installed at the user's own risk. I suppose there's a dialog for accepting the plugin's licences, that disclaimer could be there.
> We already show 'Community Contributed Plugin' in Plugins | Available Plugins. Perhaps it would be simpler to add a disclaimer there?
