Re: New datatracker UI

I find it worse than that.  Just over a year ago, Martin Rex said, about
an upgrade to a different IETF server,

"Using IE6 to test a web page is perfectly reasonable.

If it doesn't work in IE6, it uses more complex/esoteric features
than what is necessary and should be used in the first place.

The server obviously fails the golden IETF rule "be conservative
in what you send out" (as HTML) and the server ought to be fixed"

I have performed the test.  It fails, comprehensively.
