JavaFX 2.0 With Alternative Languages and Visage

Please see here for a photo and directions: http://www.oracle.com...

JavaFX has a new API face. All the JavaFX 2.0 APIs will be exposed via Java classes that will make it much easier to integrate Java server and client code. This also opens up some huge possibilities for JVM language integration. This session will take you through a whirlwind tour of four different JVM languages (Ruby, Clojure, Groovy, and Scala) showing what JavaFX 2.0 code may look like when ported to these different languages. In addition, details of Visage, the JavaFX Script successor, will be unveiled.
