'We've decided that IE8 will, by default, interpret web content in the
most standards compliant way it can.'

Sounds like heaven to me.

I'm sure some of you will catch this via various blogs and such,  
otherwise:

In a nutshell, hell froze over.  Microsoft reversed their decision to,  
by default, have IE8's rendering drop to IE7's.

It's great to see they're listening to the community.
