#153Still no h.264 on Mac :(
This is on my to-do list. Should be in Nightly builds in a few months' time.

Since TypeScript is somewhat tracking ES6 proposals it looks like Microsoft will be quick to include it once the spec is finalized.
Will the spec be finalized before IE11 ships? Seems unlikely.
I don't expect Microsoft to follow Google and Mozilla with their 6-week release cadence. If they keep to their yearly releases, we will see new features integrated into IE much faster than ever before. As a web developer, I can live with 1 year or less of waiting when specs are finalized.
The real problem is Windows XP has been abandoned so those users cannot upgrade past IE8. They must either upgrade their systems or switch to another browser.

#157At least with the addons I have installed moving the close button of the addons bar is not possible.
I prefer the old position of the search bar buttons. The new one forces me to move the mouse to the other edge of the screen and also look at the opposite sides of the screen.
Unlike other elements it isn't possible to change the positions of the search bar buttons.
Not sure why they changed it. Could it be a bug?

It's never going to happen on XP.
Depends on whether XP outlasts the H.264 patents (currently 2028 but they like to keep adding new patents to these pools to extend the time they have lock in for). So I'd say it's 50/50.

Sorry, you're wrong. I hate to be rude about it, but I'm really getting tired of people, who don't know any better, acting like feature detection is always the way to go. Feature detection simply doesn't work it many cases, and there's no alternative. Especially with new stuff like audio, sometimes function calls need to be called in different orders, have subtly different behaviors, etc., and user-agent sniffing is…
So do what the spec says by default (and if the feature appears to exist), and only deviate for particular UAs. Assume good faith.

Sometimes user-agent sniffing is the only remotely sane thing you can do. Blame the browsers, not the programmers who have to work around their "idiosyncracies".
