Either:

a) That is not an Apache site but hosted by a group of folk who happen to overlap with the Netbeans PMC. In which case, they should ask their legal counsel and should ensure they are not causing confusion by making it look like it's from Apache; OR
 b) It's an Apache site, in which case the answer is the same as for distributing it from an apache.org website.

> Originally this question was part of LEGAL-488, but not got a clear answer for that during the discussion.
> So Apache NetBeans provides a convenience binary Snap package. The most common 1 star feedback from the package that it is not running as it right now requires an external JDK to be installed, but people expect that to run out of the box, like other IDE-s do.
> Snap packaging is a bit different to the traditional packaging. Right now we have a trusted account as Apache NetBeans at snapcraft.io we build the packages on Apache infrastructure, then upload it to snapcraft.io. In this game we are the author and snapcraft is a publisher.
> So is it possible to bundle OpenJDK with this package, regarding that no GPL+CPE material is being served from Apache infrastructure?
