    Subject: SVG badges
    
    Hi,
    
       Quite a while ago I asked for somebody making SVG versions of the
    Validator Icons. No one did. I did! :-) At least it is a first try.
    Actually it's my first SVG image ever ;-) You may have a look at it at
    
      http://www.websitedev.de/svg/vxhtml11.svg
      http://www.websitedev.de/svg/vxhtml11.svgz
    
    or just
    
      http://www.websitedev.de/svg/vxhtml11
    
    If you have your browser configured to accept image/svg+xml (no, you
    didn't, just use the URIs above ;-) It's for XHTML 1.1 as you can see;
    changing this to whatever you want instead is as easy as replacing the
    strings "XHTML" and "1.1" with whatever you want. You may incorporate
    this into your XHTML documents like
    
      <object
         type="image/svg+xml"
         data="http://www.websitedev.de/svg/vxhtml11.svg">
    
          <img
            src="http://www.w3.org/Icons/valid-xhtml11"
            alt="Valid XHTML 1.0!" height="31" width="88" />
    
      </object>
    
    But:
    
      * Please don't use the image at this time
      * Please use some local copy
    
    I'll incorporate comments and contribute them when SVG becomes an
    acknowledged W3C recommendation. Did Polly say he wants a really big
    cracker for this? ;-)
    
    PS: I suggest to add support for image/svg+xml; it's rather annoying to
        use the file upload feature to circumvent the MIME type checks...
        No, it's currently not registered at IANA, nor is there some
        internet draft for this approach, unfortunaly...
