Plus, there's a little fame if not fortune, and usually a few people
willing to help.
I'd be willing to be that if you can *use* netbeans, you can certainly
learn to *package* netbeans, and as an avid user, you're in excellent
position to make sure the package actually works. :)

I can't make RPM packages from scratch so therefore i think it's best
to leave that to a professional RPM packager. But if noone else is
willing to do it than i would like to give it a try.. and i probably
need a lot of help along the way.
So is anyone up to this? or is there someone that is willing to help
me with this? i have nearly no rpm packaging experience. (i edited
specs before and compiled the package but i didn't made a spec from
scratch)
