It was a presentation yesterday, see http://servlet.java.sun.com/javaone/sf2003/conf/sessions/display-2472.en.jsp
However, JSR-184 is dedicated to mobile 3d, i.e. cellphones, PDA's, etc., not for mainstream PC users. At the moment, the only *existing* thing, which *is* on the j2se technology list, it's java3D. Other things were only *announced*, like the new java gaming platform. I thing there is a big difference between *having* something and *announcing* your future intent to make something. The announcements often are made on marketing needs, but it's not always followed by an action. On the other hand, I don't think that java3d will be dropped, it will stay for a while, *maybe* tuned for graphics workstation class applications. *Maybe* for gaming it will be a new 3d technology, a mixture between the java3d experience and gl4java direct wrapper. If I were in the position to give advices to the java3d/java gaming development teams, I would leverage the java3d pure immediate mode/mixed mode to something closer to gl4java, and expose some of the lower level api. It doesn't make sense to develop a brand new specification, except you're doing it for specific marketing purposes.
