The value of what you're doing right here with your post shouldn't be overlooked. Just to know that you guys were around, listening and taking suggestions would have made a difference to my satisfaction with IE... were I still primarily a windows user. :)
Keep doing what you're doing, get more of the IE Team to do the same.
Thanks; I'm not sure about the "get more of the IE Team on" bit. Personally, I'd rather the bulk of the IE folks focus on making IE9 better than ask around for feedback. I realized that even through these channels, I'm overwhelmed (my day job isnt to collect feedback for IE - there's folks who do that for a living; I'm just a regular hacker like the rest of you here with an interest in understanding what the people want ;) so I gotta say I'm not sure that's a good (tm) thing, really.
I hear you. I just think that people (particularly if those people are also developers) would appreciate it if they actually heard from the IE developers a bit more. It doesn't have to be to degree where it's interfering with your actual job. You guys should stay in control of how much you interact etc. For me I would find it encouraging to know that the IE developers are just around in places like HN and are listening. I'd know that if they say something occasionally. How much you interact or how much feedback you gather would not really be the relevant issue to me.
