Re: animateTransform with to-animation

Hello,

as far as I have seen, there is no special note about
to-animations in any SVG-specification, but it is always
mentioned, that one has to look into SMIL. Because
transform and other attributes animatable with 
animateTransform are additive, simply the special
rules from SMIL for to-animations are applicable.
This means, the rule has to be applied for each
component of the transform matrix - this is the
only way I could work, I can see and as defined 
in SMIL. This is not difficult, but I think, up to now 
any viewer is wrong with this ;o)

The special and contradictory rule from 
SVGmobile1.2 draft, section 16.2.16 mentioned 
in my comment from May 2006 is not
applicable for to-animations, because this
rule excludes to-animations explicitely... 

The problem gets more confusing, if we 
assume some non-additive attribute together
with a to-animation. As already 
mentioned in the SMIL mailing list, this is
not completely defined, even less in newer
SMIL specifications.
