I know I have no vote in this, but I do disagree. 1) I still believe that PDF is a print medium and should therefore default to CMYK colorspace. If supported correctly by software, the colors should show up right on the screen. 2) If you want to embedd the sRGB profile, I would recommend using the profiles found at the International Color Consortium: http://www.color.org especially http://www.color.org/srgbprofiles.html unfortunately I was unable to find the exact licensing terms. just my 2 cts.
