Under System Requirements for SeaMonkey Windows 8 is not mentioned. Why?

Because AFAIK no-one has tried it yet. Personally, I'll skip Win 8, and
I could imagine other developers will do, too. Now if we had a developer
(or active community member) on Win 8 and got a confirmation that
everything was running OK there, I'd feel a lot better with listing Win
8 under System Requirements.

Does SM not work on Windows 8 (desktop not Metro)?

As I said I don't know, but I'm almost 100% sure it won't run on
used-to-be-called Metro since (AFAIK and in contrast to FF) SM has no
specific code for it.

Greetings,

But does/will Windows 8 not offer a compatibility mode, as have
previous versions of Windows, that will allow almost all applications
compiled for an earlier release of the O/S to run on the most
recent platform ?  I really cannot imagine Microsoft being so
stupid as to bring out a new version of Windows that offers
no compatibility-mode hooks.
