> As Microsoft is pushing IE 7 to almost all desktops out there, the question is, how much longer do we need to keep supporting IE6?  I understand Dirk has had many issues with IE support, so how long do we want to keep it on our support list for the default template?  There is a certain point during which the effort brings no significant gain.
> I'm opening this item here so we can keep track of it here, but I'm not yet assigning a version before we've discussed this thoroughly.  If JSPWiki was consumer software, then the decision would be easy, but there are loads of companies out there who're still standardized on IE6.
> IE6 still has a ~30% market share, but it's waning. http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
> Of course, it took about four years for IE5 to drop from 30% to 5%, so this Issue might be here for a long time...
