I think it would be very interesting to port Batik to the various
J2ME profiles, especially with the goal of implementing SVG Tiny 
and SVG Basic.

I think there is a lot to re-use in Batik. If nothing else,
low level parsers are useful, but I think there is a lot more.

You can do an anonymous CVS checkout following the instructions
at:

http://xml.apache.org/cvs.html

for xml-batik.

About tests, I am not sure which tests you are refering to. If you
are talking about the official SVG 1.0 test suite, the Batik 
scoring is on the following page:

http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/BE-ImpStatus-20011026.html

Otherwise, we pass the 600+ tests in our Batik test suite.

I you are interested in working on SVG Basic/SVG Tiny for the 
J2ME environment and would like to contribute that work to the 
Batik project (which I hope :-), please contact me at:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and we'll talk about the contribution process.

Cheers,
Vincent.
