Including Adobe Flash Player and Acrobat Reader is currently not
possible due to the Adobe licensing and redistribution terms. You

I can assure you we are in the middle of that transition. :-)
There are some other changes that we want to do as well so this is
not completely done yet. But I am very confident you can expect to
see it this year or at least Q1 09.

Some things definetely have to be changed but we are almost done.
