SVG 1.2 Tiny Disposition of Comments

During its Candidate Recommendation phase, a number of changes were made to the SVG 1.2 Tiny specification based on public review and implementor feedback. The SVG WG returned to Last Call to request public comment, with a test suite and interim implementation report.

During Last Call, there were 97 issues raised. Of these, the SVG WG declined to make a change on six (6) issues and explained the rationale to the commenter, all of which satisfied the commenter. Additionally, the SVG WG compromised on ten (10) other issues, making a partial change, and explained the rationale to the commenter, all of which satisfied the commenters. The SVG WG agreed with all eighty-three (83) other issues, and made the requested changes, all of which satisfied the commenter. For all changes to the specification, we tested implementations to ensure that no implementations were broken by the change.
