As a reminder, Rampdown Phase 1 (RDP1) for JavaFX 19 starts on July 14,
2022 at 16:00 UTC (09:00 Pacific time), which is a little less than two
weeks from now.
During rampdown of JavaFX 19, the "master" branch of the jfx repo will
be open for JavaFX 20 fixes.
Please allow sufficient time for any feature that needs a CSR. New
features should be far enough along in the review process that you can
finalize the CSR by Thursday, July 7, or it is likely to miss the window
for this release, in which case it can be targeted for JavaFX 20.
We will follow the same process as in previous releases for getting
fixes into JavaFX 19 during rampdown. I'll send a message with detailed
information when we fork, but candidates for fixing during RDP1 are
P1-P3 bugs (as long as they are not risky) and test or doc bugs of any
priority. Some small enhancements might be considered during RDP1, but
they require explicit approval; the bar will be high for such requests.

Here is the proposed schedule for JavaFX 19.
RDP1: Jul 14, 2022 (aka “feature freeze”)
RDP2: Aug 4, 2022
Freeze: Aug 25, 2022
GA: Sep 13, 2022
We plan to fork a jfx19 stabilization branch at RDP1. The GA date is
one week ahead of JDK 19, matching what we did for 18.
The start of RDP1, the start of RDP2, and the code freeze will be
16:00 UTC on the respective dates.
Please let Johan or me know if you have any questions.
