enemi writes “Just a few days after Safari released version 3.1, Opera employee David Storey writes on his blog that they’ve overtaken Apple’s browser in the Acid3 test. In the race to be the first to reach the reference rendering, Opera’s software leads now with 98%, closely following by Safari with 96% and Firefox 3 beta 4 with 71%. He also noted the implemented features will not make a public appearance in the following weeks, because they’re getting close to releasing Opera 9.5. That version has been under public testing since September and the new CSS3 color modes and font rendering features might further delay this. They’ll probably show the score in a preview build soon and wait for a post 9.5 stable build to release the new features to the public.” Update: 03/26 21:21 GMT by Z : Opera is now at 100%, apparently, with Safari close behind at 98%. Update: 03/27 by J : Public build r31356 of WebKit (Safari’s rendering engine) is at 100%.
