  3. Check to see if your issue has already been reported :

About the Issue Tracking System

The NetBeans open source project is currently using Issuezilla, which is based on Bugzilla, to track bugs and enhancement requests. Bugzilla is an open source bug tracking system developed and used by Mozilla. You can use Issuezilla to browse existing bugs, enter new bugs, or modify the details of an existing bug.
