Drop IE8 support in favor of file size #12

Closed binarykitchen closed 10 years ago

binarykitchen commented 10 years ago

I think IE8 is not popular anymore. And more libraries are dropping support for it.

IMO the Eventie package is obsolete.

desandro commented 10 years ago

I certainly would like to. Dropping support would slim down the filesize and remove several dependencies (eventie, doc-ready).

But currently, now's not the right time. Per gs.statcounter.com IE8 has 5% usage, which means one out of every twenty people wouldn't be able to use Outlayer libraries.

I'll re-evaluate in a year.

@desandro Fair enough ...

But can you make a clone without IE8 support for now?
