Is the javafx tag deprecated for javafx-2 and javafx-8?

I don't know if this is the best place to ask such a question, I see some JavaFX guys here, retag some questions by replacing the by and adopting the new . Is it deprecated or what?

Edit: don't tag your question with tag, unless it is related to JavaFX 1.

From the tag wiki:

"javafx" tag is mostly dedicated for JavaFX 1.3 and older

  • for JavaFX 1 ... 1.3 technology, which used special javafx script language.
  • for questions about JavaFX 2... 2.2.*+ versions.
  • about JavaFX 8, which will be published in 2014 as part of JDK8.

JavaFX 8 - is the same JavaFX 2 teachnology, but is the next version, and contains tons of fixes and features comparing to 2.*+ versions.

So, none of them is deprecated. Just use proper tag for proper version.

You can notice, that you have access to JavaFX 8 with JDK early access releases of JDK : https://jdk8.java.net/download.html

And, I have to notice, that some fixes, done in JFX8 after 2.2GA release are backported to JavaFX 2.2.*, and some are not, so, it could be right, not to mix versions.
