JavaFX 11 is released

[Dirk Lemmermann]

Johan, Kevin,

a big "thank you!" from someone who has based his company and career on JavaFX. This release will put an end to all of the „JavaFX is dead“ speculations / rumors out there and it will hopefully also mark the beginning of ongoing and accelerated development of this fantastic piece of technology.

Dirk
