Uh, I just wanted to point out that JavaFX, even 'though it's being released at a 1.0 is by no means a complete technology, nor is it a mature technology. Several key parts of JavaFX, including the much-touted 3D support, have yet to be included, because they weren't stable enough to go into the 1.0.
The fact that the Java APIs aren't finished isn't about spitting in the face of existing developers, it's about getting a functional version of JavaFX out there with the ability to grow and develop over time. You can't get everything into a 1.0, otherwise you'd never release. Personally, I'm really excited about JavaFX. I'm not a Swing developer, I find the way it works too complex and powerful, and always wind up shooting myself in the foot, and so I'm looking forward to trying out a new way of doing UI design (and one that's much friendlier to my graphic designer partner, as well). Just on a side note, this thread would be a lot easier to read (and possibly more useful) if people kept on topic - sensible questions about JavaFX - rather than being full of the developer equivalent of 'omfg ur killin swing u dont care about all us java devs liek woah wtf r u doin r u liek stoopid or sumfing?' Just throwing it out there. 2008/12/3 osbald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Are you serious? wasn't only a few weeks ago you guys were trying to > tell us JavaFX != JavaFX Script and JavaFX was good for Swing too and > was going to blow us away.
