It would also be good to clarify which versions of Firefox we support.
For example, do we still support 1.0? And I'm assuming we support 1.5
still, but where does that fall in the support hierarchy versus FF2?
Also, we should probably note that Safari means Safari 2.x.
I think it would also be beneficial to start the discussion about what
our policy is for phasing out support for older, less capable browsers.
One rule of thumb I've seen is to support one major version back on
major browsers (e.g., Firefox, IE). That doesn't have to be the rule for
us, but it might be nice to start thinking about it now.

A while back the UI team for Cosmo settled on a proposal of browsers to
support. There are two issues which this list of will help us with:
+ Prioritize on bugs, especially before a release.
+ Help us focus on the the 'ideal design' in the UI elements, ie.
spacing, alignment etc.
The list of browser support in priority are:
1. Windows Firefox
2. Windows IE7
3. Windows IE6
4. Apple Firefox
5. Safari
6. Linux Firefox (note: Matthew is currently developing in this so
the app will work fine in Linux)
Target screen size - 1024x768 pixels.
I think we're all in agreement that the target size we should focus on
for a web application is 1024x768 pixels–min screen resolution. Though
the web app should still be usable at 800x600 pixels though it does not
need to 'look good'. So for example, the calendar canvas will look
squished, but is functional to double click on the calendar canvas to
have an event lozenge appear.
If there are no other objections to this proposal, this will be
documented for Preview and made clear in the test plans for QA.
