Right off the top of my head I cannot think of anything.
JavaFX is a very large package. It looks to me to provide
many benefits. I suppose that we can consider it beta-ware
at this point. I'm happy that the development team is
taking their time and providing plenty of opportunity for
us beta-testers to work with the evolving product and
give feedback. The resulting final product should be better
by the extent of the feedback given.
I went back and found the link to the blog entry I mentioned:
