Hi,

it is a little off-topic but the people reading this list are most
likely the ones who could answer this.

Is a port of Netbeans to JFX planned or even ongoing? It would
certainly be a huge project but I am asking myself, if there is a way
around that with Swing being de-facto legacy if Netbeans isn't dropped
as a whole. It would certainly demonstrate Oracle's commitment to JFX
as the future for Desktop UIs and would surely help the maturity of
JFX which IMHO needs tons of real-world apps to be thrown at it.

I would not be surprised not to get an answer for all sorts of
understandable reasons but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway.

Best regards,

Robert
