Yes, I agree that SVG would be a neat addition to Axiom HyperTex and also to MathAction. There are some very good plug-ins available that work in most browsers and now both FireFox and Opera are planning to implement it as a native capability. How easily could SVG be integrate with Axiom graphics? Should we think of SVG as being a new output format the what postscript generation works now?I believe that SVG is primarily a static 2-d graphics format, right? So I think
we would still need something like the OpenInventor plug-in to provideAxiom's "control panel" like scaling, rotation and other 3-d graph manipulations.
