Re: SMIL animation preference

Thanks! :)

Also, just to be clear: in the post you're responding to, I was talking 
about smil-animation *within SVG* -- that's the extent of Mozilla's SMIL 
support.  (I'm clarifying because I noticed you'd had some earlier posts 
asking about support for .smil files -- those still aren't supported.)

Sorry if that caused any confusion.
