Development of major browsers, like IE and Netscape, is accomplished by hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people. iBrowse is worked on by how many
A lot less! I would be surprised if the number was over 10. Now you tell me how quickly can a program as complicated as a web browser be developed and updated with such a lack of manpower in comparison. It comes as no surprise to me that "current" feature sets, which change _daily_, are not implemented in Amiga browsers. There simply isn't enough manpower to keep up.
Well of course, but at the same time I find it hard to invest in an AmigaOne with OS4 when I'll be forced to continue using my Windows based web browsers for any serious surfing. This is something the Amiga community really needs to address and Hyperion & Amiga Inc need to take steps to help this situation.
And as for the standards of which you speak, most of them have been standards for the last few years. The web won't wait for Amiga browsers to mature, there are many web sites out there that have gone ahead and used the latest web features. Amiga used to mean innovation and excitment, I don't see why we should now settle for old and stale technologies. If IBrowse can't compete for whatever reason it can only loose.
