Hi,
'It is too bad that the SVG world is so dependent on a single
closed-source implementation.'
Have a look at http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/SVG-Implementations.htm8

closed-source implementation. It would be more healthy if there were an
active community around another native implementation like the one
embedded in Mozilla.
