My comment on JavaFX

10 years before, Sun was too early to press RIA with Applet.
10 years after, Sun was too late to press RIA with JavaFX.

I don't think I'll use JavaFX. And I don't think it will not be a success RIA.
But I think that Sun can try. JavaFX will benefit feature improvement on Swing/JMF.

JavaFX will be useful, IF it is the widely used in Netbeans it self.
They will find what's the problem with it and fix it.

We will have a standard of describe the GUI in Java (even if another JSR to replace the JavaFX later).

JavaFX is "programming" the GUI. but not simply describe it statistically.

Personally, I prefer something like XUL even XAML over JavaFX.
I don't see how JavaFX can abstract the UI to "any implementation".

There is an implementation that can almost render XAML in Swing and SWT already.

Please correct me if I wrong.
Is JavaFX Script more like "the ActionScript in Flash", but it isJava rather then ECMAScript ?
