Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.0 Becomes a W3C Recommendation 5 September 2001: The World Wide Web Consortium today released the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.0 Specification as a W3C Recommendation. The specification has been reviewed by the W3C Membership, who favor its adoption by industry. SVG delivers two-dimensional graphics in XML to the Web, providing accessible, dynamic, reusable, and extensible vector graphics, text, and images. Great news - SVG 1.0 is now an official Web standard, a W3C Recommendation. The spec is here: http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/ There is a press release (in English, French, and Japanese) and testimonials: http://www.w3.org/2001/09/svg1-pressrelease http://www.w3.org/2001/09/svg1-testimonial I would like to express my thanks, on behalf of the SVG Working Group, to all those members of the growing SVG community who have produced content, tools, tutorials, helped with discussion on the lists, guided newcomers and shared their explorations of this wonderfull new, open, XML, standards-based world that we create together. Now, on to Mobile SVG, SVG on Printers, SVG with XForms, with SMIL 2.0 ...... -- Chris
