If everyone agrees that would be fine for me, and I'll appreciate that.
Take a look at notes from the meetings (starting november) to see what we
have been doing http://wiki.netbeans.org/Governance2011

In short, so far we've initiated the collaboration of NetBeans with Oracle
Academy in order to include NetBeans trainings in their official curriculum,
We're currently working to see if they will also switch to NetBeans in some
of their Java related courses
Some other things are also in progress  - like supporting collaboration
between open source projects, and some things are to be done - like
usability testing programme, and plugin portal related stuff.

John, Sven please add, if I've missed something.
