Hello public-svg-wg, The new W3C site design requires brief (one or two sentence descriptions of all specifications, past and present. Currently, all SVG-related specifications have the following description. To rapidly solve this embarassing situation, i sent in the following list of short descriptions. They can of course be changed later, but I wanted to get some real descriptions instead of the generic boilerplate asap. SVG short descriptions Standards 2008-12-22 Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Tiny 1.2 Specification SVG Tiny 1.2 describes a full-featured vector graphics language suitable for both mobile and desktop use. It features both scripted and declarative animation, synchronized with video and audio, and is implemented on modern cellphones. 2003-01-14 Mobile SVG Profiles: SVG Tiny and SVG Basic SVG Tiny and Basic are entry-level vector graphics specifications, widely implemented on earlier generations of mobile phones and adopted by Java JSR-226. SVG Tiny 1.1 has no scripting support. Implementations of these profiles are shifting to the more fully featured SVG Tiny 1.2 specification. 2003-01-14 Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.1 Specification SVG Tiny 1.1 is the foundational vector graphics specification implemented by most modern desktop browsers and by graphical authoring tools. Informative Notes 2009-06-04 Requirements for Japanese Text Layout **this short description is blank when it appears under SVG, but has (good, real) text when it appears under I18N, please investigate why ** Drafts Last Call Drafts 2007-12-21 SVG Print 1.2, Part 1: Primer **please move to obsolete** This primer described color management and multipage extensions to SVG. 2007-12-21 SVG Print 1.2, Part 2: Language **please move to obsolete** This specified color management and multipage extensions to SVG. Other Working Drafts 2009-10-01 SVG Color 1.2, Part 2: Language This specification extends SVG for color-managed environments such as print, photography and graphics arts. 2009-10-01 SVG Color 1.2, Part 1: Primer This primer explains SVG for color-managed environments. 2009-06-16 SVG Parameters 1.0, Part 2: Language This specification extends SVG with a declarative way to incorporate parameter values into reusable SVG content. 2009-06-16 SVG Parameters 1.0, Part 1: Primer This primer explains a declarative way to incorporate parameter values into reusable SVG content. 2009-04-30 SVG Compositing Specification This specification adds support for the full range of Porter and Duff operators and blending modes to SVG. It allows for raster and vector objects to be combined to produce eye catching effects. 2009-03-20 SVG Transforms 1.0, Part 2: Language This specification extends SVG to allow two-dimensional objects to be displayed using three-dimensional transformations, to allow animated effects such as flipping, zooming and perspective. 2007-05-01 SVG Filter Requirements The requirements for the SVG Filters specification. 2007-05-01 SVG Filters 1.2, Part 1: Primer This primer explains how a wide variety of raster filter effects can be applied to content such as SVG and HTML/CSS. 2007-05-01 SVG Filters 1.2, Part 2: Language This specification allows a wide variety of raster filter effects to be applied to content such as SVG and HTML/CSS, by combining a set of filter primitives. 2006-10-13 Media Access Events This specification defines a set of DOM Events and APIs related to media access, which enables detailed monitoring of media stream buffering and initialization. 2005-08-15 SVG's XML Binding Language (sXBL) **please move to obsolete** This specification allowed arbitrary XML vocabularies (tag sets) to be rendered as interactive SVG elements. 2005-04-13 Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Full 1.2 Specification **please move to obsolete** This specification was intended as a monolithic replacment for SVG 1.1. Current work focusses instead on a modular, implementation-driven approach. 2003-02-18 SVG Printing Requirements **please move to obsolete** The requirements for SVG in print environments 2002-08-09 An XHTML + MathML + SVG Profile **please move to obsolete** This specification described a composite DTD which combined the XHTML 1.1, MathML 2.0 and SVG 1.1 [SVG11] modular DTDs together. 2002-04-22 SVG 1.1/1.2/2.0 Requirements The requirements for SVG versions after SVG 1.0 1998-10-29 Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) Requirements **please move to obsolete** The original requirements for SVG 1.0. Obsolete Specifications These specifications have either been superseded by others, or have been abandoned. They remain available for archival purposes, but are not intended to be used. Retired 2006-08-10 SVGT 1.2 Requirements The requirements for SVG Tiny 1.2. 2001-08-03 SVG Mobile Requirements The requirements for SVG Tiny and Basic 1.1. -- Chris Lilley mailto:chris@w3.org Technical Director, Interaction Domain W3C Graphics Activity Lead Co-Chair, W3C Hypertext CG
