I disagree. Why should I make fixes on my clents sites because ie8
doesn't work properly?
I won't, and what I know has nothing to do with it. MS says it would
cost too much to change the engine. well, too bad, I'm not going to
with my time fix their errors.
Good luck keeping clients with that attitude.
There's no point disagreeing with what MS are going to do. It will
happen and IE8 _will_ be the most popular web browser. At least this
time we have options and some standards adherence. If MS get the picture
that 'standardistas' are never happy, they're not going to bother even
trying to please us.

I don't think they're ignoring the "mess" they created at all.. Is
adding a meta tag really too much work to provide your
users/visitors the viewing experience they should have?
Yeah actually I agree, they're not ignoring the mess. Just actively
covering it up by enlisting yours and my support.
My users/visitors should get the right viewing experience by
default, not by having to opt-in. On the contrary, if you wish your
users/visitors to NOT get the right viewing experience, is
opting-out by adding a meta tag really too much work?
Too much work for those that aren't in the know.
Chris.
