Microsoft will be compliant with industry standards in Internet Explorer 9 such as HTML 5, but Steven Sinofsky, president of the Windows and Windows Live division, decried the habit of vendors getting ahead of the process.

"We are not trying to market things that are not there for developers to use yet," said Sinofsky during an interview with Network World.

There is a little bit of a time warp going on."
