Good news. It seems that Linux and Solaris are getting the JavaFX development kit. Finally. In the fight against Silverlight and AIR every developer counts. Still some questions remain open:

• Will SUN open JavaFX completely now (don’t make the JDK error twice!)?
• When will -at least- Netbeans get a JavaFX graphical editor in the same level as the Netbeans’ Matisse Swing editor?
• And last but not least, what will Oracle do with JavaFX when it owns SUN?

Anyway, if the apparently well-informed rumour is true, it is indeed good news.
