Thread:Talk:Athena/Browser compatibility/reply (3)

Right now, I think we'd do best to focus on what we want to see rather than be held back by arbitrary problems with outdated browsers (many of whom will have fallen into pure antiquity or below our support threshold by the time something like this reaches maturity).

There's been a couple of discussions about this. Without volunteer developer involvement, Athena is at least 6 to 8 months out on the time frame (unless we magically attract contractors who want to work on it).

My current attitude is "focus less on cannot and more on the future". Making Athena work in IE 6 is probably impossible, but maybe that's okay: it would clearly be experimental for much of its life.
