<h2>SMIL<sup><a name="SMIL1"
href="/Consortium/Legal/ipr-notice.html#W3C_Trademarks">TM</a></sup></h2>
<p>The Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language (SMIL, pronounced "smile")
enables simple authoring of interactive audiovisual presentations. SMIL is
typically used for "rich media"/multimedia presentations which integrate
streaming audio and video with images, text or any other media type. SMIL is an
easy-to-learn HTML-like language, and many SMIL presentations are written using
a simple text-editor.</p>
<p>For a more detailed description of the goals of the SMIL language, see <a
href="/AudioVideo/Overview.html"></a>the <a
href="/AudioVideo/Activity.html">W3C Activity Statement</a> on Synchronized
Multimedia; a regularly updated report to W3C members that is also available to
the public.</p>
<p>The public is invited to send comments and information requests about SMIL
to the public mailing list <a href="mailto:www-smil@w3.org">www-smil@w3.org</a>
(<a href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-smil/">public
archives</a>).</p>
