This is what I can find on netbeans in earlier posts in the mailing
list:

Just merb 1.0 gem should be enough, since it's a meta-gem installing
merb, datamapper and all their dependencies.

From my experience shiny IDEs that do everything for you "magically"
do not help with learning at all.
You do what you don't fully realize. I'd learn with the simplest text
editor available.

Even though I agree to a large extent, I'm really hoping for Merb
support in Netbeans, because I've always encountered resistance when
trying to sell Ruby in any form to larger companies due to the lack of
IDE support. When I pitch Merb now, the *first* and *only* question I
often get is "which IDE do you use?".
