NetBeans651
Planned for NetBeans 6.5.1:
- GlassFish V2 UR2 is replaced with Glassfish V2.1
- The integration of the December 2008 and January 2009 bug fixes listed on the following page: NetBeans6.5PatchesInfo - based on release65_fixes clone
- The integration of bug fixes for JDK6 update 12 + additional fixes
- using the same userdir, different UC - pointing to 6.5 one (temporary in case we'll need another update just for 6.5.1 we'll create separate one), change in User Registration version number, no change in Satisfaction Survey version number
