Swing is not going away. We are putting considerable resources behind
beefing up our client java strategy, both in Swing and JavaFX. They
both depend on the underlying JRE and Java2D infrastructure, which has
been receiving a lot of attention lately (in JavaSE 6 update 10 and
future JRE releases).
There will even be an example in the SDK that shows you how to mix
Swing with JavaFX. Tons of fun stuff coming!
