"Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates today narrowed the release window for the second beta version of Internet Explorer 8 to sometime in August.
During a keynote address at the Tech-Ed conference in Orlando this morning, Gates said that IE8 Beta 2 would ship that month, with 20 different language-specific versions available within a month after that.
Last week, the IE development team announced that the next beta of IE would be released in the third quarter of the year, which could be anywhere from July 1 to Sept. 30. The developers also told site administrators and Web designers to prep for the beta by adding a compatibility tag that would let IE8 users view their sites using the Microsoft-centric rendering standards of the older IE7." ~computerworld.com
