Hi Dr Cohen -
I work for Sun, and I don't speak for Netscape! I do my best
to post messages that are accurate and that can be substantiated,
but that is not the same as being an official spokesperson.
I think reasonable people can disagree on the dangers of
postscript interpreters. I do not dismiss your concerns - I was
merely pointing out that the fix may be simply not to run a postscript
interpreter. That decision is made by a user, not by a web browser.
