InfoQ: What is missing from the EA release?
There are only two important features that are not in the EA builds yet: the ability to describe a GUI declaratively in markup, and the JavaFX-based browser plug in (which bypasses Swing and AWT entirely for displaying applets).
Everything else is already there, including a TableView UI control, the ability to embed JavaFX into Swing, a Web component to render HTML content within a JavaFX application, binding, observable lists, observable maps, etc.
Une maniere de decrire une interface graphique de maniere declarative ? :? Via HTML5, je suppose ?

InfoQ: What platforms are currently supported?
We have builds available for both Mac OS X and Windows (XP, Vista, 7), though Windows will be the only officially supported platform at this point for our initial release. We will add support for Mac and Linux as soon as we can.

InfoQ: Dropping support for JavaFX Script means you lose some of the benefits of that language - things like the data flow-style bindings and collection literals. How much of that is supported via the Java API?
One of the most innovative features in JavaFX Script was its support for binding. Exposing it in the language was a particularly powerful concept. Even beyond this, the binding support in JavaFX Script was unique in the range of powerful expressions that were possible and its high performance due to lazy evaluation.
Developers will be happy to learn that we are bringing these important features to JavaFX 2.0. There are both low-level binding APIs (very powerful and flexible, though somewhat verbose) and high-level binding APIs, which use a fluent interface pattern. In addition, we've brought observable collections with us (ObservableList and ObservableMap).
Et enfin une petite info sur la disponibilite (mais toujours pas sur la redistribution)

InfoQ: Will JavaFX be included as part of Java 7?
JavaFX 2.0 will initially be available as a stand-alone download for users of Java SE 6 and Java SE 7, but we plan to provide a combined Java SE 7 / JavaFX 2.0 bundle soon after.
