Heads up, Mozilla Foundation: IE team no threat ... yet

WinNetMag | at | by Mike

And if I could beat this topic to death a bit (what the heck, it's Friday), I should also mention a bizarre public chat that the recently reconstituted IE team had with users. I'm mentioning it only because the IE said so little, and was so utterly incapable of specifying what, if anything, it would add to future IE versions. Yes, they're aware that a lot of people want tabbed browsing and better standards support. Yes, they promised a more comprehensive fix for the Download.Ject issue. But specifics? No, we'll have none of that. So what can we expect of future IE versions? Not much, in my opinion, and not anytime soon. This is a huge opportunity for Mozilla, and for any other company that makes browser products that compete with IE. Step it up, guys.
