Last question: Are you (SUN) going to make an official announcement of the upcoming new hardware accelerated Java2D technology in close time ?
Answering these questions on the interest list and posting whitepapers on performance and features is about as "official" as we get. I doubt there's going to be a speech by Scott McNealy on Java2D acceleration anytime soon, if that's what you were interested in...
We're not making a huge deal out of the OpenGL support currently because it is disabled by default due to the driver and hardware issues that have already been mentioned. With flag-enabled acceleration, it's more important to get the message out to the right community; developers who would like to experiment and see how well it works for them in their situations.
Chet.
