Actually that is the real problem - it is for admins, that are not allowed to use
a modern browser because central IT invested X money in to certifying it with
whatever ridiculous internal stuff they came up with. They do not want to
re-certify with FFn+1 every 3 weeks because no one will pay them.
Obviously you don't want to require support for the latest and greatest
every 3 weeks version, hence "relatively modern". "Relatively modern"
being, I don't know, browsers from 2010? or even 2012? Wouldn't they
have this same certification headache with Java 7 or Java 8?
Grand ma on the opposite just needs to call their kids^w local tech support
to get an update installed.
No, grandma wouldn't even make the connection that she needed to update
her browser. She just wouldn't go to that website anymore.
FYI, I'm not trying to hijack this thread. Just trying to get input.
Are you saying drop IE8 as well? IE 9 came out in March 2011.
Browser geeks: if gecko1_8 was dropped, what's the earliest Firefox we'd
support?
gecko1_8 is used for *all* Firefox version > 3.0. For FF, Chrome & Safari GWT does not distinguish between interim versions. Here's the full list of supported browsers (taken from the latest GWT sources):
I think Tomaz's proposal to drop IE 6 is a no-brainer.
I take this as a "Yes, remove IE6 permutation from the WF version"
