And these figures will be even lower in 6 monthes<br>
So If the data are correct, I suppose you are right, and support
for those browsers could be safley dropped.<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi
Do you know what is the share of FF 3.6 and IE 7 in Nigeria,
Philippines, Pakistan or Turkey?
I suppose that people in those countries probably can't afford to
change computers as soon as here...
By the way, my university is still using Windows XP, so it is not
"dangerous" (but of course we plan to change OS in 2014)
And 1 year ago, the FF standard version insalled on staff computers
was 3.6! (Now it is 10 or 17, I don't remember)
>From what I understood (that's not my part ;-) ), using fresher
version of FF was not an easy task for our IT department, because FF
was virtualized, and the older versions are somehow "lighter" than
the recent ones.

You're right, lets give it another 7 years before we upgrade (october
2006 it was released).

<pre wrap="">As I mentioned in IRC today the primary caveat for this goal is that
Bootstrap 3 says it "drops support for Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox
3.6." However, it doesn't explicitly say what "dropping support"
means. If it means broken functionality, that is a problem for us. If
it means graceful degradation, that's more acceptable. I'll be doing
some investigation, but I think we need some opinions from others
about what level of support we need to offer for IE7 and FF 3.6.

First, I really have no opinion on IE 7 thru 10 -- I do read the
stats on "market share", and I do have access (for webpage

We're all entitled to our opinions and I respect yours. However
XPPro SP2,[1] properly set up (with a *user* account, never go
on-line with admin privileges) is not "dangerous." EOL, maybe,
but I feel that Koha is gaining ground in (excuse me if I'm not
PC) less developed countries where quite frankly older o/s abound
for whatever reasons.
Upgrading Koha to deny XP (and I'm not at all sure that's what's
being proposed) might be cutting off our noses to spite our face.

<pre wrap="">It should be noted that it was discovered that bootstrap 3 sites, though

</pre>
</blockquote>
<pre wrap="">
For the record, I still have (no time to rebuild) half a dozen
"kiosks" that run FF3.6 under Win98SE (despite a whole bunch of
misinformation that it's not possible) -- the Koha OPAC is
visually perfect (3.8.5 near standard OPAC CSS) and very fast.
YMMV.
Bottom line: bootstrap 3 is probably the right way to go, and
sooner rather than later ... but let's not forget that there are
probably hundreds of thousands, if not potentially millions, of
KohaOPAC users who are not as "up to date" with their boxes as we
might be...
Best regards,
Paul
[1] I have two boxes running XPPro, installed 2001, upgraded SP2
2004 (both running IE8 since 2009). They have never, ever failed
in 12 years -- "bullet-proof" is a term that comes to mind. Note
that I have never used Vista, Win7 or Win8.
