SVG has been dead in the water for some time, but now there are signs of some movement.  Most importantly, Adobe has released a pre-release version of SVG Viewer 6.0.  FYI, SVG Viewer is an IE plug-in for displaying SVG graphics within web pages.  I hope they keep their asses moving so that all the SVG fanatics don't end up looking like fools.  Apache's Batik team has also released the final version of Batik 1.5, a Java implementation of SVG renderer.  You can find source, binaries, and list of changes here.  Yes, it is slow so get a fast machine if you want to sell it upstairs.

If the nonsense above made you wonder what SVG might be, it is an XML-based vector graphics format whose capabilities overlap Flash and Postscript to varying degrees but has a lot more.  As you know, a lot more can be a blessing as well as a curse.  We'll see how the future turns out.  Frankly, I like SVG in the same way as a fireman might smile while watching surfers frolic on the beach as the firetruck rushes by them.

Someday.  Someday.  Hopefully on a Sunday.
