IE

History of IE, which give me a question: is it really good to have independance organization to work on standard without major vendor involve?

=== quote ===
I hated fixing our browser to make it bug-compatible with Netscape even though
we had already coded it to "the standard". Life's not fair sometimes :-)

We won the Microsoft deal. I suppose only the higher echelons of Spyglass
management really know the gory details of this negotiation.
