Stefan,
> Since CSS3-Color is currently Working Draft, I should not *enforce* usage, nor block SMIL 3.0 going to Proposed Recommendation.
> But letting my concerns know about adding new things to a standard that will be *knowly* deprecated in a new standard (that will again take many years to build) would (from my point of view) be valid. But I'm happy to wait for 3.X that would be launched after a recommendation for CSS3.

Thanks for the understanding.

We'll add this to a futures list, and we encourage you to contribute 
your time and player to the SMIL effort.

Dick Bulterman, for the SYMM working group.
