[External] : Re: Proposed schedule for JavaFX 20

[Kevin Rushforth]

As Johan said, the JavaFX releases are currently built with Xcode 12.4, 
so JDK-8296654 isn't directly relevant, unless it doesn't fully describe 
the problem. If you are seeing a crash on macOS 13 Ventura with the 
downloaded JavaFX SDK (built with Xcode 12.4), that would be a much more 
serious bug.

Do you have a reproducible test case using a build from openjfx.io or 
jdk.java.net?

I plan to do some macOS 13 testing in the next day or two, so can take a 
look if there is a reproducer.
