Sigh.... Saft finally works on the Safari 3.0.3 beta, the first time it has worked for me on any of the Safari 3 betas. I'm very glad to have it back. It's amazing how soon a luxury can become a necessity. Combined with GoodVibrations CSS, all those annoying ads are now blocked. Which is great because my Version Tracker subscription will soon expire and I wasn't looking forward to the reappearance of ads on the site. This is relevant to a discussion of Saft because Version Tracker is no longer offering the less expensive membership that just eliminates ads. They now require a Pro subscription, even if you don't want or need to use the standalone Version Tracker Pro application. And they have not fixed the scaling problem with their main page where the right-hand column expands to over half the page width, crushing the more important left-hand column, if you increase the font display size, which I need to do in order to read it easily. Since they have not responded to my oft-expressed concerns on this issue, I'm voting with my wallet and refusing to reward them for violating accessibility standards this way. Hence, the value of Saft for me. I apologize for the rant if none of this means anything to you.
