Sorry, I missed this when @erwin1 commented on it. The Headless Platform is an important feature, to be sure, along with the Metal Graphics Pipeline (also in 26), the HeaderBar preview API (initially in 25), the rich text area incubator (initially in 24), etc. However, those aren't the sort of changes that go in the "Important Changes" section with a release note. That section is for things that might affect application compatibility or default behavior that would be visible to the application, which is why it's limited to the three that have an associated note. The new features are listed right below those with a release note, but we don't have an individual release note or description for any of them. Linking to the CSR would be a good start, but maybe we should consider a section for "New Features" with a short description for each? We'd want to discuss which features (all of the ones in the "New Features" section? a subset of the most important ones?) and how much to write about them. I'm not sure I'd want to do it this late in the release cycle for JavaFX 26, though. Thoughts? ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jfx/pull/2090#issuecomment-4001131445
