Re: sometimes I take SVG for granted

Interesting topic, but not very informative. Perhaps some of you might shed light on how the SVG working group got neutered? Seems to me that a standards body should not be subjected to the whims of a corporation like Microsoft. Perhaps instead of bemoaning the situation some thought should be made as to how to correct the situation. I personally would like to see a rating system for browsers, much like restaurant ratings, where a browser is given an A, B or C rating as to its standards compliance. Also, how did the CSS group obtain so much power over the direction of the web? CSS, I find to be way over used outside of its original intention.

Anyway, hope someone can come clean, the W3C has some juicy internal intrigue and corruption that would make for some juicy gossip.
