Save the Developers is gone. savethedevelopers.org now redirects to Microsoft (Get IE 7 or IE 8 Beta).
Save the Developers Pop-down
I used to have a little save the developers image on my homepage for ifupdown, but I doubt that it’ll work now as all traffic is redirected to Microsoft.
That’s pretty sad. A little site that stood up to Microsoft’s lame duck browser was eaten by Microsoft. Does anyone have any information on this? I searched around but there wasn’t a blog anywhere that said anything about this at all.
Rest In Piece, Save the Developers.
Read my recent post about the return of Save the Developers.
Yeah, that sux. I was just about to drop that in on a site I’m working on. We redesigned everything which broke all the IE6 hax we had. I need someone to save me :(
We just started to redirect IE6 users to an error page in our project because of the ajax and DOM manipulation lack of compatibility it has.
About the save the developers website, its a shame. :(

IE6 support will never be dropped really. If users can see things in a reasonable manner with most of the accessibility intact, I’ll leave it at that. I don’t mind of organizations can or can’t use another browser. As long as users know the difference between Firefox and IE and aware there may be features missing in one during their visit, I’m fine with them using an inferior browser.
