There's no policy or good test matrix (or even minimum set of requirements) for this right now, and I was just griping about some CSS bugs that made it through testing yesterday. This is definitely something we need to develop a solid set of guidelines. For Sean's problem, I think it might be that the javascript framework we use isn't supported on Safari (and here's the first item on a potential "hard requirements" list already - all javascript must degrade gracefully when not supported). We noticed that some of the javascript did not have good fallbacks for spins.fp.o, and we've already developed the fixes to ensure that very similar code works properly on fp.o. I think this should just be a matter of making those same fixes on spins.fp.o. Thanks, and thanks to Sean for the repor, Ricky
