Finally created a new GPG key using gnupg. The old one was a DSA/1024 bits one and 8 years old. The new one is a RSA/2048 bits one. I will use the new one in the future to sign any release tarballs I might create. pub 2048R/57816A6A 2011-01-29 Key f...

The Authoring Tool
We lifted the veil on the new designer tool for JavaFX last week at the JavaOne 2009 conference. Here's a screenshot:
The tool made a number of appearances:
First in the Tuesday keynote where my boss Nandini showed the basics of the tool.
Video,
starts at 23:08.
Then in the mobile keynote where Eric Klein showed the multiscreen support and mobile deployment.

And finally in the Friday keynote where I got to do a longer 10 minute segment on the tool.
Video,

The above video links just point to small chapters of each keynote; for full video replay go to
