specification for Mozilla's SVG in OpenType proposal

Hi there,

First, I must apologise for not having engaged on the mailing list for 
some months.

Edwin Flores, who wrote our SVG-in-OpenType implementation in Firefox, 
and I have put together a specification for our proposal:

   http://dev.w3.org/SVG/modules/fonts/SVG-OpenType.html

This documents our implementation, aside from the fact that we currently 
do not support animations in glyphs and we have not updated the property 
value names from -moz-objectFill to context-fill, etc. (which is 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798843).

Obviously this still has some differences to Sairus' proposal.  This 
represents our (Mozilla's, to the extent of people who have been 
involved in developing it) view of what the SVG-in-OpenType feature 
should look like, but this is not necessarily the view of the entire SVG 
Working Group.  Next week the SVG WG has a face-to-face meeting in 
Sydney, so I intend to bring up this feature and the differences between 
this proposal and Sairus' to see if other members of the group have 
views them.

Thanks, and I will try to be more responsive on the list.

Cameron
