I didn't see anything in the release notes, but the current release is working 
now on 6.8. Looks like they were listening.

It doesn't change my opinion about luser corporations who think it's ok to 
build a flash-based management interface for their wares (looking at you, 
VMware).

Speaking of which... not the beta, but the current updated default. I have
one, and only one, radio station I'm streaming 'bout half the day,
weekdays - wqxr.org NYC, and it keeps complaining I need a newer
flashplayer. I click the x in the pink box, it goes away, and everything's
fine - it' just annoying. Doesn't happen anywhere else I'm streaming. Is
this an artifact of it expecting an even newer version, or something
cached on my system, or...?

FYI, this has been reported on the Adobe "Flash Player Beta Channel" forum,
and I've +1ed it. I would suggest doing the same to add some more pressure
on them.

Looks like it's compiled against a later version of glibc:

ldd: warning: you do not have execution permission for `./libflashplayer.so'

I've been using it -- currently ..._179 -- (sparingly) on a -7
