Tibco recently released General Interface 3.2 under the BSD Open Source license and have ported the application to support both IE6 and Firefox 1.5.<\/p>\n<p>Within the interview, the developers comment on the great performance of Firefox overall and mention that they were surprised how good the SVG performance in Firefox is.<\/p>\n<h3>Inline SVG in HTML<\/h3>\n<p>Sam Ruby really wants WHATWG's <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whatwg.org\/specs\/web-apps\/current-work\/\">(X)HTML5<\/a> to support inline SVG and MathML.  Recently, he wrote a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intertwingly.net\/blog\/\">proof-of-concept script<\/a> to allow SVG and MathML inline with HTML (again, not XHTML).  This is, of course, only possible on browsers that support SVG in the first place (like Firefox and Opera), but it does give you the benefit of best-effort parsing of HTML, rather than XML's draconian error handling of XHTML.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/www.codedread.com\/googleads.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Request: Turn ODF into SVG<\/h3>\n<p>Bob Sutor makes a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sutor.com\/newsite\/blog-open\/?p=1257\">good request<\/a>:  The ability to transform an ODF presentation (Windows translation: \"a Powerpoint slidepack\") into SVG+HTML bundle.<\/p>\n<h3>Where is the Opera Love?<\/h3>\n<p>Doug Schepers has a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.schepers.cc\/?p=11\">great post<\/a> about SVG and semantics.
