Catching up on the news of two weeks ago?

The reason we said IE wouldn't be updated was BECAUSE MICROSOFT HAD 
EXPLICITLY SAID EXACTLY THAT ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS.

The announcement of IE7 was a big deal precisely because it was a 
high-profile reversal of a previous policy that Microsoft had 
trumpeted quite widely.

Of course, the discussion on this list about updating IE was about IE 
*Mac*, and IE7 is *not* going to be created for any OS but WinXP and 
Win2K3 Server. They do not plan to create a version for Win2K nor for 
the Mac.

So, the situation is pretty much exactly as it was before in regard 
to the subject in question, the updating of the Mac version of IE.
