Good suggestion in general, I suppose.
But on this list, you should _expect_ to see discussion of
technologies in development. There are other forums for "how to"
questions.
Excerpt from: World Wide Web Mailing Lists
at: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/Mail/Lists.html#www-html
www-html (Archive)
This is the public mailing list for technical discussion among
those interested in enhancing the Hypertext Markup Language
(HTML) or building systems that support HTML. It is explicitly
intended for the collaborative design of new systems, software,
protocols, and documentation which may be useful to the HTML
developer community.

p.s. Be careful with the words "major browser." Arena is not a
supported product, but it may very well be a "major browser" before
you know it.

To some folks, it already is. So is the emacs w3 browser, which also
does stylesheets. So are several other nifty browsers high on
technical merit and low on marketing resources, like the old MidasWWW.
Using of the term "major browser" to refer to software that developers
can't get easily their hands on isn't the best way to make friends in
the net/web development community.
