Default ISAS Solar Sail

ISAS Deloyed Solar Sail Film in Space
http://www.isas.jaxa.jp/e/snews/2004/0809.shtml

Beyond the first press release, I am unable to find any more
information on the Internet about the Japanese Solar Sail experiment
launched yesterday. Was this just a test deployment and did the sail
burn up on reentry with the rocket? Does JAXA have nay further plans
for solar sails?

Thanks to anyone that can fill me in.
