Microsoft has documentation on MSDN of IE6’s !DOCTYPE switch behavior.
Addendum to yesterday’s thoughts on digital distribution: to clarify, my belief is that a buffet or library model makes more sense than traditional “subscription” pricing (or that “subscripitons” may work, but should include access to full archives, etc). As tablet-pc’s and e-paper becomes more prevalent, this will become much more natural, I believe.
Also, in talking with my co-worker, he validated my thoughts on the issue, and we narrowed it down to an implementation/infrastructure issue and explored a few ideas on actually making it work. We’ll see if anything comes out of it.
