Guest post by In the description of this session of SXSW 2011: Voices From The HTML5 Trenches: Browser Wars IV, it says: “Every major browser vendor — Apple, Opera, IE, Chrome, and Firefox — will have a significant browser release by SxSW 2011.” IE team has confirmed it by an annouchment, now we can wait and see if IE9, Firefox 4, Chrome 10, Opera Mini 6 for Tablets and Safari (???) will be released all together.
Why the (???)?
Did you think they were talking about Opera Mini for … Safari?
You would be mistaken, because they are talking about the release of Opera Mini for tablets, and, Safari.
English can be confusing at times.

I assume it’s rather because we don’t know which version of Safari is going to be updated, whereas other browser manufacturers tend to have development blogs.

That would be awesome to have the major players updated around the same time. A lot of work, too, to test each, but still, the state of the web is surely creeping forward.
