OpenJFX was missing a few high value controls.  These are Spinner, FormattedText and Alert Dialogs.  Spinner is a control that is found in most modern UI toolkits.  FormattedText (or adding the ability to filter and format a regular text control) is important for business applications.  Standard Alert dialogs are common in most UI toolkits and also essential for business applications.

Sanity Testing / Weekly Code Freeze

Weekly sanity testing is performed to catch errors early.  See . During this time, the repo is "frozen". See Sanity Testing for details.

Milestones

Milestones are clean points where FX could be shipped.  A milestone contains no P1 or P2 issues.  Committers are encouraged to hold back significant changes just before a milestone to maximize stability.
