Good news.  I don't think a certain browser will try to support SMIL,
but still, good news.

Well, I did hear a rumor that the makers of that certain browser were
considering using a free software engine like WebKit.  If that were to
happen all of the browser market would have <video>/<audio> support +
possibly SMIL, which would hopefully imply Ogg support.

They got the MIME types wrong, though.  Ah well.
