Description Michael Cooper 2011-08-03 23:12:01 UTC 
[Filing on behalf of John Gardner]

All <svg> elements should default to using the image role. This may already be defined somewhere.
Comment 1 Michael[tm] Smith 2011-08-04 05:34:54 UTC 
mass-move component to LC1
Comment 2 Anne 2011-08-04 08:47:44 UTC 
Defining the semantics of SVG is out of scope for HTML. Re-assigning to SVG.
