Chris, Is there evidence that people with a broad range of disabilities are using SVG? If so are they using mouse alternatives, including keyboards? Is SVG, WAI, PFWG or any other group updating the various relevant W3/SVG accessibility documents? If so are there any disability groups represented on this working group? Without that evidence it might seem hard to justify any claims to accessibility or potential accessibility. (in particular keyboard navigation of graphical spaces is unlikely to be transparently easy for either designers to implement or users to navigate). I apologise for my previous comments which were attempts to communicate using a language which I have difficulty understanding. I've already mentioned that much of SVG1.2 is written in a language that I find hard to interpret. regards Jonathan Chetwynd http://www.peepo.co.uk "It's easy to use" irc://freenode/accessibility *this is a 2 dimension to 1 transform. It may be acceptable to say that this is not a specification consideration. However it seems possible that user feedback might significantly effect future specifications.
