That's wonderful to see. The community still needs to sift through  
the bugs before making any pronouncement of course, but it's starting  
to seriously look like you guys have done in a few months with a tiny  
team what many others failed to achieve in many years, sometimes with  
much larger teams. It sure is encouraging!

A few small nits with the table of supported things:

  - the list of attributes is no disambiguated for those attributes  
that have the same name but different meanings depending on where  
they occur. For instance, there's "type: yes; type: no". In most  
cases it's clear, but in some (like the previous one) it's not.

  - the list is clearly Full 1.1 related. What are your plans for  
Tiny 1.2, and if there are any can they be added to the list? At the  
very least, and forgetting about the elements and attributes, adding  
the scripting interfaces in Tiny 1.2 to a browser would really kick- 
ass. Currently, those of us developing for those platforms have to  
jump through a few hoops to debug our content, and being able to do  
so in a browser would change our lives. The delta is small, and easy  
to implement (much of it could be done in script actually, so I guess  
a user.js might handle it -- though it's of course better in the  
browser).

  - do you have any specific plans in making some of these resources  
(fonts, gradients, filters, etc.) available from HTML, either as  
fills or as backgrounds?

  - supporting only text/ecmascript seems strange, I would assume you  
also plan to do the other variants, especially the non-deprecated ones?

  - seeing your results against the SVG test suite, however short it  
is, would be nice.

But I'm picking nits really. Opera: you kick ass!
