On whether or not NetBeans builds, I was hoping you could tell me ;-)

These changes in build 30 do address the primary source compatibility 
issues from the initial round, including those found to impact the 
NetBeans build. Many of the exemplar test programs that didn't build 
with b24 do build again with b30.  However, I have not tried to do a 
NetBeans build myself.

(Some level of source incompatibility can be acceptable in a feature 
release, but we don't want gratuitous problems on that front.)

Thanks,
