Hot news! JavaFX Desktop ship date Dec 2!

[Patrick Wright]

Just heard this on the "This Ain't Your Dad's Java" podcast from
November 7 (see http://blogs.sun.com/javafx/entry/this_ain_t_your_dad),
they've announced that the release data for JavaFX Desktop is set for
December 2, 2008. They apparently announced this at a presentation in
Korea and the news wasn't passed along.

Pretty cool!

This is actually a good podcast, if you want to hear about Java: "The
Business"

Quote sure to cause this group to erupt:

"Ranting about if closures are includes in Java SE 7 becomes highly
irrelevant..."

I took that quote out of context to stir interest, go listen to the
podcast. :o)

Hopefully the 1.0 SDK will have heaps of new features, demos, etc...
for us all to work with.

will soon be released. :)
