Since a large section of our USER base is still tied to W2k and does not have access to install other software, the call for IE6 to die is STILL somewhat premature! What is needed is someone to kick M$ to sort the mess out by at least allowing IE8 to install on W2k machines, rather than telling hundreds of councils they have to replace ALL their computers :( The alternative is to convince M$ controlled councils that Firefox is OK and that using it will not invalidate their contracts - but then all the work currently being done to convert legacy setups to work with *IE7* would have to be scrapped and reworked on Firefox. Many of my customers have only just got funds to start an *IE7* roll out! Redoing all that work for IE8 is yet another problem for which money is not available.

Support of any type for Win2K is over in 5 months. Better upgrade. -- Thanks! -Shawn

In addition to that, the "stats" on visitors show that IE6 popularity is dropping at around one percent per month. In January it was around 10 percent. As such, I believe that before the end of this year IE6 will be history regardless of IF management wants to upgrade or not. Lastly, I think I have a good feel for the general consensus of developers regards to IE6. I won't be considering it any longer for web development before the end of this year and I don't think I'm alone.
