Yes but anyone looking a wine knows about Linux and knows about the
ammount crap to expect for IE be it on wine or windows
I find it hard to imagine that anyone coming to wine needs to be made
aware of FF or any other non-IE browser.
The Open-standards link suggested would be a good idea for a link page but
I agree with Marcus that it is not needed on the front page.
Why not some worthy appeal buttons as well , Tsunami victims are less
important than FireFox?
m2c ;)
