If this is true, our miserable lives as developers, might soon become just a little bit less miserable.

The infamous IEblog reports that its developer team has found a way to bypass the Microsoft marketing departement and make the new version of Internet Explorer - IE 8, pronounced: IE HATE - more standard compliant. They have kindly requested general manager Dean Hachamovitch to leave his million dollar villa and for once actually do some work and put up an image of Internet Explorer 8 passing the Acid2 test. Lets just hope that Hachamovitch did not photoshop the image on his MacBook Pro.

Developers around the world, aware of the fact that this solves none of their problems, but hoping for a better day, are now waiting for the IE team to come up with an innovative solution to clear the dominance of IE version 6 in user world.
