Right. But what's the point about JavaFX? You can do data virtualization
even with JavaFX.
I haven't read anything to suggest that a new language for write UIs
is needed. Just look at Silverlight which uses XAML (XML) to declare
a UI, it's doing fairly well.
This is fairly subjective - there are also people that hate XML. For me
this is not a relevant detail and I'd learn either way in function of
the technology that I pick.
Perhaps, Josh Marinacci also left because he saw a lost cause.
And what about others that are still there? I'd not make speculations
about other people's intentions (also because it's easy to
counter-speculate: Josh is a guy who like challenges and the PalmOS
choice he's done is not less challenging than JavaFX).
