<p class="MsoNormal">Let me offer a correction: “SVG Glyphs for OpenType” was a W3 Community Group (CG), not a Working Group (WG). That is worth noting, since there are significant differences between those kinds of groups.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The CG had no formal connection to OFF or to OT. It served as an open forum for discussion (in fact, one didn’t need to be a signed-up participant to send messages to the email list, I believe). Furthermore, a W3 CG seemed a natural fit,
given the SVG standard’s home in W3C, the heavy involvement of SVG WG members in the development of OT-SVG, and SVG’s own goal of deprecating its <font> element. A “final report” was crafted by the CG & proposed to OT/OFF. That proposal continued to be refined
and modified in OT/OFF forums.<o:p></o:p></p>
