Hi there. These questions are best asked on the development mailing list. I have CCed it. > 1) are there any snapshot archives available?

No. Snapshots are almost always broken and we don't support them. If your distributions rules prohibit you from using a git checkout pinned to a specific revision, but allow a tarball of that revision, I'd suggest your distribution's processes are broken :) You are of course at liberty to checkout a specific revision, and then tar that up yourself. > 2) can libsvgtiny be used as a drop-in replacement for librsvg?

No. libsvgtiny parses a subset of SVG and creates a list of instructions for what to draw. It does no rendering itself. It depends on some of the other libraries in the NetSurf suite, but none are that large. B.
