It isn't that hard to look for yourself.  Here's one I didn't know:

"Since Oracle has discontinued further development of JavaFX Script, 
JavaFX support has been temporarily removed from NetBeans 7.0. Work on 
JavaFX 2.0 with Java APIs has been announced, and NetBeans IDE will be a 
primary tool for the new technology. "
