Hi.
Bill forwarded your question about Flash to me...
We will update to Flash 9 on Linux in an upcoming Athena
patch release. We will be installing it locally, instead of using
the plugin in the infoagents locker, for improved performance
and ease of maintenance, so we do not plan to update the
version in the locker.
Flash 9 is not yet available on Solaris (though a beta was
released recently), so Solaris users will continue to use Flash 7
from the locker, at least for the time being.
Please let me know if you have other questions about this.
Bob
