Title: Message
Andrew,
Yes
indeed you're correct, that page doesn't seem to be
up-to-date.
IMHO
SVG has much more potential then only being used in the typical desktop Web
browser.
In
this browser we're indeed obliged to use the Adobe Viewer. But my feeling is
that this will change. I'm really hoping that the Mozilla effort
succeeds.

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 There is clearly
more then the Adobe SVG
viewer.

Gert,
Unfortunately that
page is *way* out of date, as you can confirm by checking the dates given
against each viewer.
The Batik viewer is making a lot of progress but
it is a Java viewer (alongside a development toolkit) so isn't appropriate for
embedding in a typical Web browser.
The SVG Mobile viewers are
progressing and are discussed on the SVG-Mobile mailing list at
http://www.yahoogroups.com/group/SVG-Mobile
For desktop brower use
of SVG there is the Adobe Viewer (the most complete implementation but, at
least in its public version, frozen for several months) and the Mozilla native
SVG project (a very partial implementation at present).
