Just a reminder that Microsoft will be releasing IE7 this month. They are pushing out this update automatically so there's a good chance that if you use IE, you will be running IE7 soon. (Hey wait! Most of us here at Jot use and recommend Firefox, so now's a great time to switch to a better browser if you're not wedded to IE for some reason.)

The good news is we've been testing IE7 on our 2.8 release and have found a few minor cosmetic issues, but nothing is badly broken. Our 2.9 release, due to be completely rolled out by end of Novemeber, will be fully tested against IE7. (Custom themers please note: the next release a our custom theme package won't be released until the 2.9 time frame for this reason.)

What does this mean to you?

While we've been testing IE7 on 2.8, we haven't yet done regression testing on 2.7 or earlier wikis. So:

1. If you're not running a custom theme, there's nothing for you to think about or do
2. If you do have a custom theme, please consider regression testing it to be sure IE7 works for you
