Hello,

  allow me to quote Chris Lilley who chairs the W3C
SVG working group.

  Here we go:

  So, it's not a W3C working group but instead, is a
small group of individuals trying to bring back the
browser wars mentality. It's invitation only, I see,
though I expect most specs will be on hixie.ch anyway.

  ...

  Not at all, since apart from some fancy names for 'a
few more HTML 4 tags' there isn't much there and it
ignores pretty much all Web developments of the last
four or so years - it rejects even XML.

  Given that Mozilla itself embraces XML, RDF, has a
simple XLink implementation, does some SVG, and so on
it's a fair bet that this represents a few
disgruntled, tired individuals trying to bring back
the 'who needs standards, we have quick hacks' good
old days rather than a radical change of direction for
Mozilla as a whole.

  Any comments? Any thoughts?
