I can also see an argument for starting with 12 like the JDK did, but I am not in favor of that, given that this is the first time we are introducing the NEW section. If we think that most new readers of these docs will be coming from JDK 8, then **NEW since 9** makes the most sense. Worth noting, though, is that FX was bundled with the JDK in 8 and 9 (and 10) -- JavaFX 11 was the first unbundled release, which would argue for **NEW since 11**. Another argument for starting with 9 is that the reader who is just interested in what's new since 11 can simply uncheck 9 and 10 and get that view. So if there is some value in presenting new in 9, that argues for starting with 9. Unless someone feels strongly that we shouldn't, let's stick with 9. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/1109#issuecomment-1585666839
