The bits I find most interesting are:
# Host: Brian (Microsoft)
#
# Q: when / will there be the next version of IE?
#
# A: As part of the OS, IE will continue to evolve, but there will be
# no future standalone installations. IE6 SP1 is the final standalone
# installation.
#
# Q: Why is this? the anti-trust? (no further standalone)
#
# A: Although this is off topic, I will answer briefly: Legacy OSes have
# reached their zenith with the addition of IE 6 SP1. Further improvements
# to IE will require enhancements to the underlying OS.
In other words, innovation in the browser space has been explicitly
conceded to other browsers.
