Woo, hoo. A couple of months ago I was waking through the halls of IE, so I could catch my carpool home, and glanced something exciting on the wall.
What I saw has finally been announced. It should have been introduced something like:
I hope all you developers out there there now have smiles on your faces.
Why? Because IE8 finally passes the Acid2 test!

The first section of the video on Channel9 is cool.
The team has put in a lot of work over the past year, they still have work ahead. But it is exciting. At least for someone who does occasional web development.
When IE had a public bug tracking system setup for IE7 there was a bug which simply stated. "Pass Acid2 test". Well I suppose that bug can be closed now. :)
