I personally care, because my employer has customers using IE5.5.

I'm not suggesting that new components bother with anything earlier than
IE6. And if someone has a good reason for including some IE6-only code
then I guess I will just have to maintain a private Tomahawk fork.

Werner is looking at making all tomahawk script based on the latest dojo
release, which is ie6-and-up. That *is* a good reason to drop 5.5 in
tomahawk trunk.

But for the moment I'll try to keep components that currently work for
IE5.5 compatible with that version.

Regards,
Simon
