[consulting] At what percentage do you think most new sites will stop supporting IE6?

[Brian Vuyk]

I was just looking at statistics regarding browser usage.

W3Schools shows IE6 usage at 14.5% last month: 
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp
W3Counter shows IE6 at 24.84% last month: 
http://www.w3counter.com/globalstats.php

Regardless of what the true usage is, all these statistics indicate that 
it's usage is dropping, although not particularly fast.

At what percentage point do you think people will start to consider IE6 
to be not worth supporting anymore? I know a lot of developers feel that 
we are past that point already due to how obsolete IE6 is. However, most 
clients I've dealt with insist that Safari be supported with ~5% of the 
market share, and IE6 even more so.

Thoughts?
