one project i am working on at the moment is to present document text in a family tree fashion [i.e. in a diagram] problem is military documents... in one section, rather than a listing... they want a listing of parent documents/this document/child documents presented as a family tree [a tree diagram with doc ids and description within each box] the solution is to transform sgml [and sgml is the starting point] document via XSLT to FO, then on to PDF. the document is multi sections, only one section is the diagram. svg seems to be the only straightforward way of embedding the diagram in the document. the svg is pretty simple, the text in the boxes is straightforward [except for a description which presents the problem of text wrapping] and conditional processing to handle from 1 to many parents/children. hence the problem is not earth shaking.. but using svg seems to be a fairly elegant way of achieving the desired result. cheers...hugh W.

I don't have a really plausible reason for asking the question at this particular moment in time, but I would be interested to know what people on this list (which presumably largely excludes the core SVG geeks) are using SVG for at the moment?
