Alternatives to the W3C

[Brandt Dainow]

Good idea.  I concatenated a log analysis of ours and four customer's sites
together with webtrends for last week.  Here's the browser report (I know
there's some rubbish in it, but I wanted to demonstrate the complete
result).  Sample size about 11,000 visitor sessions:-

Microsoft Internet Explorer 70.31%
Netscape 27.42%
Java1.1.7 0.33%
AE/2.1 (linux) 0.07%
Other Netscape Compatible 0.88%
9 0.05%  (don't ask me what '9' is)
The Informant 0.05%
Googlebot/1.0 0.11%
ia_archiver 0.01%
Wget/1.4.3 0.07%
Teleport Pro/1.29 0.58%
Other's listed as single visits only:-
WebCompass, Mata Hari/1.10, gazz/1.0, TITAN/6.0, Microsoft URL Control,
webcollage/1.32,libwww-perl/5.47, EmailSiphon, Wget/1.5.3

Breakdown of NS and IE versions is:-
NETSCAPE: 4.x=94.35%; 3.x=5.64% (of Netscape visits)
IE: 5.x= 66.3%, 4.x=32.97%, 3.x= .031%, 2.x=0.4%

SUMMARY:
IE 5= 46.6%
IE 4= 23.2%
NS 4= 25.8%
NS 3= 01.5%
REST= 02.9%
