Hi, We have now changed this from a must to a should. # For systems which have system clipboards, the SVG user agent should # provide a user interface for initiating a copy of the currently # selected text to the system clipboard. Thanks for your thorough review, please let us know shortly if this does not address your concerns. /The SVG WG ---- From: Ian Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> Date: Wed, 28 Dec 2005 19:51:10 +0000 (UTC) To: www-svg@w3.org Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.62.0512281947560.7669@dhalsim.dreamhost.com> The SVG Tiny 1.2 specification says: # For systems which have system clipboards, the SVG user agent is required # to provide a user interface for initiating a copy of the currently # selected text to the system clipboard. This is an inappropriate requirement because there may be numerous situations where allowing interaction with the system clipboard is undesirable (e.g. in a kiosk environment) or where the system's UI is such that this requirement would be incompatible with platform conventions (e.g. on X11 systems where the active selection represents the clipboard and where the actual "system clipboard" is a separate concept altogether). Please remove this inappropriate requirement and allow implementors to chose how they interact with the system APIs and platform conventions. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
