I think you missed this:

one suggestion I would make to the community is to use the Adobe Wish Form to make specific feature requests, such as support for 64-bit and PowerPC platforms and alternate OS such as FreeBSD, so the comments are more productive.
I'm hoping for the gnu version myself.

No, I saw that, but what I mean is that the interviewer should have pushed them harder on that point. As far as I know, people have been nagging them for ages, via that form and other means, but clearly it hasn't achieved anything yet. The 64-bit issue is just lame in late 2006 - they should have made him squirm with that a bit!
