Hermien / Jiri,

I have tested HTML 5 and JavaScript editing using NetBeans 8.2 Patch 2 with
JDK 8 update 151, and found no significant issues. I have updated the the
GoNoGo <http://wiki.netbeans.org/NetBeans_82_JDK8u151_Bundle_GoNoGo> page
accordingly.

However, I did find many minor issues with some test specifications,
especially "[Web Client] HTML5 Editor". Most issues relate to the
documentation rather than defects in NetBeans, and I don't think any of the
issues I found would have been introduced by Patch 2. I can either send you
a separate email detailing all the issues later this week, or click the
"report issue" link for each test with problems. Just let me know which
would be the best approach.

Regards,

Rick
