OpenStreetMap
I've been trying out Firefox 3.5 RC 3, and so far I like it a lot.
Except, I've noticed that with http://openstreetbugs.appspot.com/ that the mouse cursor doesn't change to a crosshair after you've clicked the green + button.
It's not a major bug, as marking locations still work.
I guess it's a bug with openstreetbug and firefox 3.5 :P
Apart from that minor gripe, I've been doing quite a lot of surveying of country roads and inner city.
I'll be going to the Canberra - Australia mapping party that's coming up soon, so I'll see some fellow OSMers there!

Could you please also test FF 3.5 on http://openstreetbugs.org/ (you do not need to click a button)?

oooh wow, http://openstreetbugs.org/ is much nicer to use :D *bookmarked*
emka: Thanks for the link, it works fine in FF 3.5 (32bit Linux, I'd assume other platforms would work nicely too).

Humph, http://openstreetbugs.org/ even try to work with MSIE 6, and suggests I contact my system admin to get my browser updated. I guess whoever wrote that never worked in a big organisation :(

I recently added a similar note for IE6 users to http://mappa-mercia.org/. While I understand that it might be difficult to have one's browser updated in some organisations, I think as long as websites do support IE6 these organisations see even fewer reasons to update their browsers.
IE6 is now eight years old and two new major versions have been released since then. With all modern browsers becoming more and more standards compiliant IE6's deficiencies become really obvious and is quite an effort now to support IE6 compared to other browsers.
I think it is understandable that people who make websites in their spare time do not want to spend much time tweaking an otherwise perfectly working website just because some organisations or indiviuals cling to an antiquated browser.

I am "whoever wrote that" and I never worked in a big organisation. I am aware that IE6 is still in use but Xoff made the point already.
I hope the displayed message will help to change the current situation.
@daveemtb: I am interested in the answer of your organization's administrators.
