IE8 Final Release Date

During the last months Microsoft is being working so hard in the new IE8, in many sites Microsoft recommends the use of the new version of the IE against IE7. However the company is not ready to publish the final version at the end of this year.


Surely we'll see one more release before the final version is ready. Some questions about this:


1. Is IE8 part of Windows 7 ?
2. Is IE8 a mandatory update or a separate package like IE7.

I leave you with this questions...

Any comments...
