... blah. blah, blah, typical Sun bulletin...

Openwindows V 3.0 uses News as its core; so does Solaris 2.0. I assume from
this announcement that Sun is still committed to display postscript, but they
plan to let Adobe develop the standard implementation.

Regardless of the Adobe agreement, Sun has been sending out vibes to
developers that people should be developing Openwindows applications using
the OLIT package (MOTIF equivalent) not TNT or News. This may change with the
Adobe announcement; I'm not sure which the way the wind currently blows at Sun.
