Acroreader updated for Solaris ....
I was reading through yesterdays various blog posts on Solaris and was excited to see a post indicating that Adobe has released a patch for the latest version of acroreader for Solaris. However I read to quickly (as is too often the case) and missed the part that said Solaris/SPARC. Bummer. I was and am looking forward to being able to read PDF files, with acroread, on my OpenSolaris laptop. Maybe the growing number of voices on the Adobe Forums will help persuade Adobe to port this useful app to the x64 architecture.

New project: Device Mapper
There is another new project in the OpenSolaris Storage community. Not that any one is keeping track but the 50% of the new OpenSolaris projects started in December and January were from the Storage community!
The latest addition is from one of the OpenSolaris Storage core contributors. He has recently taken on the challenge of investigating the use of the Linux device mapper in OpenSolaris. I look forward to hearing about the challenges and successes.
Have fun Cyril!
