Re: Lingua Franca of the Web - Will SVG replace HTML?

: Isn't this very argument a proof of the interest of SVG that is, unlike
: the graphic formats we knew before, a graphic format that keeps text
: stored as text and thus a good compromise between these two statements ?

Well then why don't we all just use postscript instead? Or PDF?

Why not? Because a page rendered as into graphics format is already too low
level (it has lost too much semantic information) to be a useful interchange
format.
