*shrugs* As much as I would love to see Adobe listen, they don't listen. A company run by, quite frankly, arrogant pricks, are not going to listen to the lone voice in the woods - the best one can expect is for companies like Sun, Red Hat and Novell to donate money, setup a working group and develop complete replacements in an opensource manner. Its pathetic when companies like Adobe only look at quarter-to-quarter profits rather than long term strategy. But hey, thats corporate America - explains why the credit crunch was an inevitable thing that was going to occur.
