Some questions about participating in development

Hello everyone, since I recently spammed https://javafx-jira.kenai.com
with bug reports :-), I decided it's time to take the next step and
contribute patches.
With the help of
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX I was
able to checkout & build the rt module and execute gradle test, which
BTW reported:
Exception in thread "JavaFX Application Thread" Exception in thread
"JavaFX Application Thread"
javafx.scene.web.JavaScriptBridgeTest > testBridgeBadOverloading FAILED
java.lang.AssertionError: caught unexpected exception:
netscape.javascript.JSException: TypeError: 'undefined' is not a
function (evaluating 'sb['append)int)'](123)')
at org.junit.Assert.fail(Assert.java:91)
at
javafx.scene.web.JavaScriptBridgeTest.executeShouldFail(JavaScriptBridgeTest.java:370)
at
javafx.scene.web.JavaScriptBridgeTest.executeShouldFail(JavaScriptBridgeTest.java:374)
at
javafx.scene.web.JavaScriptBridgeTest.lambda$testBridgeBadOverloading$84(JavaScriptBridgeTest.java:424)
All other tests (loads of them, very nice!) have executed successfully.
I have also successfully executed gradle zips.
Now I wanted to start using an IDE. Under
https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/OpenJFX/Building+OpenJFX there are
gradle tasks under section "IDE tasks" for IDEA and Netbeans project
creation. These tasks are missing from my output of gradle tasks. Is
there anything I forgot to install? Any unseen dependencies? What is the
recommended / most used IDE of JavaFX developers?
Also how do I submit patches? I already have signed (but still need to
send ...) the OCA. There is no way (for me) to attach anything in JIRA.
Should I send patches to this list?
Best regards,
Robert Lichtenberger
