Hi Michael, as Chris pointed out, I am not on the SVG WG. I am a developer on 
Inkscape (www.inkscape.org) and Open Clip Art Library (www.openclipart.org) and 
rely on SVG's standardization and success. Chris is your contact. Mental and I 
just brought this up for you both to sort out...at this point I guess we can 
leave the stage for you guys to sort these issues out. Thanks!

Jon
