Opera community blog

We're ready to announce one of the biggest changes to our community since its launch in 2001. We are really committed to our work, and there's nothing greater to see new members joining or existing ones logging in!

But... There's a catch to it all. As most of you know, developing Web sites today is time-consuming, and in order to maintain My Opera we're forced to think of all different kinds of contexts when we create something new (or fix something old). So, Nicolas, Edoardo, Esteban, and I (together with front-end guys Fred and the new kid in town, Tristan) have decided that it only makes sense to continue development exclusively for Microsoft IE6 (according to our stats, the majority of our users are IE-followers).

Yeah, yeah, we know... We are the Opera community, but, boo-hoo-on-you!

There's simply too much work to support all those browsers along with their interpretation of "standards".

We can safely announce that starting today, a new era will arise.

If you think this is good, then help us digg it!
