Really? My experience has been that, except in cases of targeting specific browser bugs, Safari is generally equivalent to Firefox or better in terms of "reliable" rendering. “The order in which browsers have “successfully” achieved ACID 3 compliance is the exact opposite order you can count on them to successfully render a website.”

The whole ACID 3 race reminds me of the lengths video card companies in the 90s went to, tweaking their cards to score impressive results on artificial benchmarks.

Ian just realized that Acid 3 was focused on a different baseline of browser features and it wasn't appropriate to put HTML 5 stuff in that at this time.

They're constantly making changes to their software, just the same as Safari and Opera. If they're currently focusing their changes on support for HTML5 then that's cool with me, I'm pretty sure I'm not using anything in my code that is affected by the failure of the Acid test. They should just say that compliance of the test is in the books and leave it with that It does seem a little standoffish doesn’t?

Developers understand you can't make large changes to the underlying infrastructure this late in the game.
