[WG: Sakai QA] [Building Sakai] [Using Sakai] Safari 4.0 and Sakai 2.6

[Eli Cochran]

In the past one of the key reasons that Sakai did not support Safari  
was the lack of FCKeditor support for Safari (or perhaps I should say,  
a lack of Safari support for FCKeditor.) With Safari 4 not only  
supporting FCKeditor, I think that we should reconsider testing and  
supporting Safari.

On Fluid, we chose to support the Yahoo A Grade browsers, as a good  
snapshot of high-quality, modern browsers with a reasonably high  
installed base: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/articles/gbs/
