Well, before you start coming down on Anthill, did you bother to check the
rest of the mandrake sites?  Thought not.

Anyways, in the course of development, I've personally tested with Galeon,
Mozilla (OS X and Linux), IE6, IE for Mac, Safari on Mac, Phoenix (OS X and
Linux).  So I've tested with my fair share.

I also know of many users who use IE-based browsers (I've fixed a number of
bugs related to rendering on IE).  Anthill isn't a new product.  It's been
in development for over 3 years.  It was not written and designed
specifically for bugs.mandrakelinux.com.

Anyways, as soon as I get around to updating the site, it will have the
DOCTYPE setting; it's in CVS right now.

(Thanks for pointing out that I need some robot to tell me that it works
tho)
