…is there any activity in this space?? pretty awesome to see.
“performance reasons”… ha… I usually bite my tongue… to put it lightly, Microshaft just seems to get more, not less, annoying in time… looking forward to the day when FF + Mozilla + Safari exceed 50% Market share.
(Firefox + Mozilla + Safari = 37.9% ‘browser usage’ vs. 19.7% IE7, 37.3% still using that dogsh*t IE6)

what happened to the survey – where are the results ?
Got a link to Microsoft’s statement that they might be removing the scripting host?
Yeah are they really removing the scripting host or was that just a joke?
This categorized, summary posting roundup for the month is excellent. I don’t recall seeing it presented this way before. In any case, I hope this continues for each month since it provides a great, quick reference.
I’m not sure Dion can say where he heard that “joke”, if it was a joke, or intended for publication. But it is hard to take seriously. The problems with taking it seriously range from backward incompatibility pain to antitrust action. So why would MS do anything of the kind? But then why joke?
