SVG Status

[Keiron Liddle <ke...@aftexsw.com>]

- w3.org have not released the next working draft, they will have the
fixed java bindings with the next working draft (sometime)

- not much has been done on the code front

- we can use the code from the CSIRO svg toolkit provided it is under
their license (means having their copyright in the source etc.) or wait
for them to provide a version that is covered by the Apache license.

I think I will start to generate a todo and supported list of
elements/properties etc.

I am keen on seeing SVG functionality develop and have written a patch to 
FOP that adds <circle> functionality, in the same style as the other 
SVG-FOP primitives. Is this worth sending to someone to patch in? [There 
isn't much more that can be done at the present because we need a complete 
parser for SVG - presumably the CSIRO code would be adapted to do this?]
