[Christophe Combelles <ccomb@xxxxxxx>]

An ERP is not a public website. I've not yet seen any problem requiring an 
installation of a decent browser for the purpose of accessing OpenERP in a SME. 
After all, installing Firefox is no more different than installing the OpenERP 
GTK client.

Anyway it's no doubt it would be better to support IE correctly...
But there is nothing preventing anyone from doing it. I would personnally never 
loose any time doing it, I've been losing way too much time in the past years 
because of IE. Never ever again...

I wish the lucky guy a pleasant debugging session under IE.

regards,
Christophe
