Dear Scalable Vector Graphics Working Group, http://www.w3.org/TR/2005/WD-SVGMobile12-20051207/fonts.html defines the lang attribute as The attribute value is a comma-separated list of language tags as defined in IETF Best Current Practice 47 [BCP 47]. The glyph can be used if the xml:lang attribute exactly matches one of the languages given in the value of this parameter, or if the xml:lang attribute exactly equals a prefix of one of the languages given in the value of this parameter such that the first tag character following the prefix is "-". If the attribute is not specified, then the glyph can be used in all languages. The reference to the xml:lang attribute is inappropriate here as the language of the text for which the SVG font might be used might use some other mechanism to identify the language, e.g. HTML uses a lang attribute; please change the draft such that it makes no assumptions about how language information is specified in formats that make use of SVG fonts. regards, -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
