So where is SVG in regard to Web Standards ?

http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/

Besides the current recommendation there is a 1.2 revision currently in working draft
<http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG12/>.


Are many people using it for anything useful ?

I believe it has been adopted widely in the cartography space.

The Web Stats package Urchin version 5 uses it to great effect for their stats charting.

I've only used it for simple business graphics in xsl:fo tranforms but quite like it for this.

Are there any other SVG plug-in viewers other than Adobe ?

Not that I am aware of but there are several standalone SVG viewers.

Are any browsers supporting SVG natively (e.g. through a DTD for example)
?

The most recent incarnations of Mozilla have some rudimentary built in support.


There is a SVG Wiki <http://www.protocol7.com/svg-wiki/> and also a mailing list

Cheers,
Chris
