Flash and Java FX both got a methion on the previous 'radar' (along
with Silverlight) as to why they're no longer on the A (B or C) list.
Basically, they're the blondes of the software world; They look great
but, ultimately, don't add content.  (The preceding January 'radar' is
worth looking at, for the sake of comparison.)

Anything but.
Java (the language) is certainly not a winner, merely hanging in there
because it is currently so widespread.  Only the JVM is healthy,
thanks to Groovy, Scala and the like.

It doesn't matter.  Not all opinions are equal.
