The logo on the site is rather good, I'm not sure the 'commie' style
overtones will be best for Dmitry, though it does attract attention.

That won't hit them in their pockets. Remember your system uses Adobe
PostScript to print, even if it is actually going through ghostview.

Obviously things like this ebook is evil, I've not bought any DVD's with
regions on them for similar reasons.
  
I'm kind of sneakily hoping that making enemies of Defconf attendees, won't
prove the smartest thing, ever. Adobe better have good security consultants,
well better ones that their programmers wot used rot13 anyway *grin*.
