SVG issues and ideas for SVG Open talk? - Commons-l

14 May 2009

Hi all --

I'm putting together a talk proposal for SVG Open 2009, which will be in 
early October at the Google campus in Mountain View, CA:

https://www.svgopen.org/2009/

I've got plenty of background I can pull in on the challenges and 
benefits of SVG on the web and the tradeoffs we've made in our usage and 
implementation, but I know lots of you folks out there have been more 
active on the 'content-generation' end of things and can point out some 
things I wouldn't think of.

If anybody's got any particularly interesting issues, examples, 
problems, or idea prototypes relating to usage of SVG on Wikipedia and 
other Wikimedia sites, I'd love to see how much I can pack in. :)

Pointers to cool feature proposals like Nikola's localization 
presentation at Wikimania last year, or bulk anaylsis like benchmarks 
and compatibility tests on images in actual use would be of particular 
interest.
