Thanks for taking a look at this. In light of your response I’m wondering about
the ob-* inclusion criteria. I recall when removal was being discussed the
concerns being with ob-* libraries that were some combination of:
⁃ Too niche
⁃ Being actively maintained

Which is why I thought SVGBob could be a good fit, as it’s a small useful
general-purpose tool that only takes ~50 lines of code for a library (and so I’d
be quite happy to maintain) and IMO fits in nicely with Org.

Would you mind elaborating a bit more on your thoughts on what makes an ob-*
library a good fit for Org or not?

All the best,
Timothy
