Ogg Audio and SMIL 2 Success

Hello Robin,

Thanks for the SVG link.

Are there any plans to have an Ogg audio plug-in for RealONE?
I think that's what's missing and keeping SMIL from becoming as popular
as 
HTML. There should be billions of SMIL pages just like HTML.
By adding Ogg, a SMIL page can have the same qualities as an HTML page.
The time and effort put in a SMIL page will be time well spent, because
that 
page will have been built on open W3C standards and media that are open
and free.
Media like jpg, png, SVG, and Ogg, where one doesn't have to worry about
the format becoming
obsolete next year or licensing issues.

SMIL 2, SVG, and these media formats represent safe choices for
multimedia expressions.
RealONE is almost there! Ogg audio is almost ready with the 1.0 release,
please consider
including a plug-in.

Thanks for keeping the Web progressing,
Jose Ramirez
