Hello public-svg-wg,

ACTION-2788
Convey font-family parsing result to CSS WG

This has been done
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Jun/0055.html

and was discussed at the CSS telcon on Wednesday. I'm happy to say that as a result, the CSS 2.1 issue is closed and both CSS and SVG WGs agree on the resolution.

The minutes record the resolution as

    RESOLVED: font-family names are ident+ or quoted strings 
    (CSS2.1 Issue 114)
         http://wiki.csswg.org/spec/css2.1#issue-114


http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Jun/0087.html

To reflect this I have edited SVG 1.1F2 text.html and changes.html to add the following sentence to the description of the font-family property:

"Unless the family name corresponds to a CSS IDENT, it must be quoted."
