If I'm reading that right, only 0.02% of users are using Mac OS classic (although I suppose there could be some more that have been grouped into "Other", but that won't be many).
That is still at least 1000 pageviews per month. If it does not degrade gracefully, we would be telling them to buy a new computer in order to view Wikipedia. How many contributors will be lost in the process? Only developers can tell us how many of those 1000 pageviews were logged in users.
1000 page views a month over the whole of Wikimedia is as close to nothing as makes no odds. That could be just a single user.
Most IE5.2 users should have upgraded to iCab. Do we have good iCab support?
IE to iCab isn't really an upgrade... it's a completely different browser, isn't it?
iCab was a supported browser long after IE for Mac was dropped.
Sure, but it's a completely different browser. "Upgrade" means to go to a later version of the same software, not a later version of completely different software.
