Exactly, please sign up for the mailing list and be on the lookout for the review to go out. The docs were posted here because it is the best public place to post them.

This is a work in progress, but Joe should be ready to send it to the openjfx mailing list for discussion later today. If you are not already a member of that mailing list I encourage you to join. A mailing list will be better for a discussion of the proposal than using JIRA (although the final outcome should be captured here).

I'm very much looking forward to a solution where retained and immediate mode systems work together in JavaFX. It is apparent that JavaFX will fall behind HTML5 soon unless this solution is realized ASAP. Here is a topic (Can D3 SVG Scene and Canvas be layered together?) on the D3.js forum that might have some useful information : http://groups.google.com/group/d3-js/browse_thread/thread/a4c7c3fb420bd6d3

It might be interesting here to consider two variants of such a 2D canvas implementation. One that strictly adheres to the HTML 5 Canvas specification and one that extends AWTs Graphics2D. As they are very similar they could make use of a common base implementation.
