Re: link activation material in CDR

Hi Timur,

Thanks for your reply, and for pointing out the new location of the 2.4 
section.

It was actually the informative material in 2.3 that was most interesting 
to WebCGM (and also to me as an SVG WG participant).  Upon initial reading, 
2.3 *seemed* to be making generally applicable recommendations about 
parent-language-dependent treatment of link targets, and illustrating them 
with "for example ... XHTML and SVG ..."

We accept your assertion that they are of limited and specific 
applicability, and are satisfied with your response (below).  We like the 
suggestion in your third paragraph (below) that the material be preserved 
in some appropriate context.

Regards,
-Lofton
(for WebCGM WG)
