March 4, 2008 · Posted in Opinion, Tech 

Oh dear. It looked for a while as though Microsoft was going to make the right decision on compatibility vs. standards compliance in IE8. But they’ve reversed their decision now. Why? The Microsoft Interoperability Principles.

I pointed out the reasons that their original approach was the right one a few weeks ago.

So, once again, a press release trumps common sense. Idiots.
