Time for another Week in Review. We had a fairly regular week this week, with the focus somehow being Mac cloners, The Pirate Bay, Mono, and Browsers were also in the spotlight this week with the release of Firefox 3.5, disagreements on the video tag codec, and talking about KHTML.

Speaking of HTML5 - browser maker were unable to settle on a codec for the video tag, mostly because Apple refuses to implement support for Ogg Theora,
While I think Apple stance on this issue is really stupid, saying that it failed because of Apple is, to put it mildly, utterly absurd.
Firefox has a bigger Market Share than Safari now, and if anyone is hindering the video tag from being widely accepted it's Microsoft who don't even give a sh*t about HTML5 at all.
Whether Apple supported ogg wouldn't matter, if IE would suddenly support ogg. You bet Apple would follow suit and implement it, if that happened, they can't be left behind. So please do keep things in relation here.
