Hm.

I'm surprised that folks feel so strongly about this.  I don't want to get 
into a protracted discussion about this, but...

Many people, myself included, will not allow Acrobat on their systems as it 
can cause instability (read: your computer crashes  when you try to run 
it).  In general, it's not a good idea(tm) to present data in .pdf format 
because a significant segment of your audience cannot read it.

Aside from POD, HTML is actually the most universally readable format.  If 
there is to be an alternative, it shoudl be in HTML to reach the largest 
number of people.
