Building OpenJFX

[Rainer Lang]

Hi Kevin,
Hi Richard

Thanks for checking.

Is there a way to retrieve a matching 2.2 JFX SDK for the current 
stream. Are there any nightly (binary) builds available.

If not, what are you considering a 'compatible' revision match of the 
jfx source to work with the 2.2b08 public release? Or are there other 
ways to work the the JFX source for non Oracel developers?

Thank you for your feedback,
Rainer
