A very candid comment. For so many years, other parts of Web tech like Flash, DHTML etc has evolved into popular supports, SVG support is still in Stone Age, or should I say Iron Age? That is really ironic.
The spec is growing fatty and fatty, which means fewer tech company would be able to come up with a full support (well, I mean at least one). And what is story of the Spec 1.2 and ASV 6? Forever? Does it mean the spec 1.2 is waiting for ASV to give prototype and ASV 6 is waiting for the spec? :-) It seems like the spec is really aimed at "users". I mean it will be easier for end users to type in the graphics than using a graphic software, as it seems not meant to be software-developer friendly. ---------------------------------------------- http://www.skycitygallery.com/japan/japan.html --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Jim Ley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > "orchidsonline" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > I am just getting into SVG and XML from a DHTML-PHP-MYSQL mentality > > and am excited about the creative possibilities.
