<blockquote cite="http://shaver.off.net/diary/2008/03/27/the-missed-opportunity-of-acid-3/"><p>Ian's Acid 3, unlike its predecessors, is not about establishing a baseline of useful web capabilities. It's quite explicitly about making browser developers jump - Ian specifically sought out tests that were broken in WebKit, Opera, and Gecko, perhaps out of a twisted attempt at fairness. But the Acid tests shouldn't be fair to browsers, they should be fair to the web; they should be based on how good the web will be as a platform if all browsers conform, not about how far any given browser has to stretch to get there.</p></blockquote> <p class="cite">&mdash; <a href="http://shaver.off.net/diary/2008/03/27/the-missed-opportunity-of-acid-3/">Mike Shaver</a></p> <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/acid3">acid3</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/browsers">browsers</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/gecko">gecko</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/ian-hickson">ian-hickson</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/mike-shaver">mike-shaver</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/opera">opera</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/webkit">webkit</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/web-standards">web-standards</a></p>
