So, the new proposal:
There would be a "top level" outline policy - a small number of browsers are supported (i.e., WMF will keep spending money until they work):
- Desktop: Current and immediately-previous versions of Chrome, Firefox,
MSIE and Safari
May I please remind you of the fact that many Mac users are running older systems until they stop working without updating their system? I for one will keep running my MacBook with Mac OS X 10.6.8 with Safari 5.1. In TeX development we have received complaints from Mac users running desktop systems no longer supported by MacTeX which currently supports system 10.5 and later. So supporting the current and immediately-previous versions of Safari may not be sufficient. Those users also usually cannot switch to current versions of Chrome or Firefox because they need too much memory.
