"Solved"?  Why not "proved" (or "disproved", if that had been the case)?  I 
had to follow the link to find out whether it was found to be true or not.  
(Talk about burying the lead! :-))

What's the status of verifying the proof?  Is it only accepted in Bulgaria, 
currently?  (If you've looked it over and given it the OK,
I would give that some weight, too.)
