Description

Java now has a new release cycle and a new terminology LTS.

Java 11 to be released in September 2018 will be designated as a LTS release.

Should NETBEANS also follow and Jump to an LTS based release cycle and have a Netbeans 11 LTS?

Can we have a NETBEANS 11 LTS release as early as January 2019?
