[Commons-l] Commons-l Digest, Vol 21, Issue 26

[GerardM]

Hoi,
There have been problems in the past with people replacing png with svg
where the actual content was said to be the same but wasn't. The consequence
is that the automatic replacement of any content is something that will not
be trusted by many. It is a matter of trust... lack of trust based on past
performance.
Thanks,
     GerardM
