Joshua Allen writes on the MIX blog that Dean Hachamovitch, the guy who runs the Internet Explorer team, is to showcase IE8 at the MIX08 conference. Dean is going to share more about Internet Explorer 8 including a sneak peek at some of the features his team have been hard at work on, such as IE8 finally passing the Acid2 test and further improvements on standards compliance.
Dean"s keynote at MIX06 was one of the highlights of the inaugural MIX conference. Since then, IE shipped a new version with a new UI and dramatically improved standards support, and the browser industry has heated up with an emphasis on web standards and new entries in the browser market.
