Status or future of Woodstock in Netbeans

I am fairly certain that at least some of the responses I will receive
to the following will be "ask in the right forums", but as you will
read, asking in the right forums is like shouting into an empty bucket.

Can anyone tell me, and others, what the future - long, short and
immediate - for Project Woodstock is in Netbeans? As it stands at the
moment, you can see that people are crying out in the forums

https://woodstock.dev.java.net/servlets/ForumMessageList?forumID=2879

and in the mailing list

https://woodstock.dev.java.net/servlets/BrowseList?listName=users&by=date&from=2008-10-01&to=2008-10-31&first=1&count=57

asking the same thing, with zero response.

I have made the possibly fatal mistake of committing a large project to
using Netbeans, Visual JSF, and Woodstock, and after considerable work,
when I hit a bug, have found that there is zero support available anywhere.

That takes me to a meta-gripe, which I'm hoping someone can actually
throw some light on. The netbeans wiki
(http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqChat) advises several chat forums. I've
been crying into those forums for several weeks, and have never received
any answer - if they are not in some wise an 'official' channel, could
the wiki be updated to reflect the *real* place to direct questions like
this?

I really, really want Netbeans to be successful, it is far and away the
best IDE for java development I've used, but if this continued complete
inability to find any meaningful support continues, I'm going to have to
re-evaluate and probably take my dev team back to a commercial product.
