I think you hit the nail on the head. My employer targets big companies, who don't like deploying things that are unsupported, and who tend to use IE. I'm sure a solution will be soon in coming, but "hosting" illegal copies of ASV (long abandoned, but still technically "supported") or using long-dead versions of Corel's viewer are not going to fly with these companies, and will hardly give credibility to SVG. It is not the question of availability of a viewer, it is a question of the legitimacy and perception of viability of the viewer. > I love civil disobedience as much as the next man, but seriously, i > don't think this is much of an option. Same here. I like Nico's idea and attitude, but pragmatically it won't fly for all needs. Having the status of a technology pending the resolution of a lawsuit will not inspire confidence.
