SVG does support a compression, I believe it is a sort of zipped format: "SVGZ" actually :-)
BTW I see SVG more as a strong open standard file format, which has its roots solid planted in grounds of XML, SMIL, DOM, Scripting and other nice standard things.
The great thing with that is ofcause portabillity between
<UL TYPE=SQUARE>
<LI>media (through the XML part - did you know that as of Adobe Reader 5.1 SVG can be embeded into PDF?!)Example
<LI>applications
<LI> rendering devices (it is allready avalibel for PDAs and Mobile phones) Example info
<LI>As a "SVG developer" you are familiar with terms and technologies like XML, SMIL, Scripting (EcmaScript for instance) and DOM. You get a "synergy" effect - "learn this here and you can use it anywhere". Like "Why learn Danish instead of English? People speaking Danish are perhaps 5.5 million people".[/list]
So lets get SVG shall we!!!? :-)
