I've removed the offending sentence, but be warned that it may return in SVG Full. How would you reword this in light of writing-mode="tb-lr" (for Mongolian, Manchu and Phags-pa script), a value not covered in SVG 1.1 Full? Please let us know if this satisfies your comment, in terms of the SVG 1.2 Tiny spec. Regards- -Doug
