I see .... I've just finished entering 'feature request' in their site and I saw your message.

Now something irrelevant to acroread but very relevant to other concerns for more updtodate desktop for Solaris: Is SUN planning on releasing a more uptodate graphical desktop for Solaris10?

I think that Solaris 10 running on servers should not be so much influenced by a refresh of the realllly old libraries (why would people run desktops on servers?) in case stability/reliability is an issue. At the same time, people with Solaris10 subscription do not feel so comfortable start using OpenSolaris just for the more modern graphical goodies.

I am having all shorts of problems with the outdated GNOME libraries.

Any way thanks for the reply

Michael

"Letting Adobe make it available"?   Who do you think is stopping
Adobe other than Adobe's own management?   They finally got enough
customer demand to decide to do it for their next release:
