            <h3>Graphics Markup for the Web</h3>
            <div class="intro">
              <p>SVG is a markup language for describing two-dimensional graphics applications and images, and a set of related graphics script interfaces.  <a href="/TR/SVG11/">SVG 1.1</a> is a W3C Recommendation and is the most recent version of the full specification; a second edition of SVG 1.1 which includes clarifications and minor improvements based on developer feedback is currently in Last Call.  <a href="/TR/SVGTiny12/">SVG Tiny 1.2</a> is a W3C Recommendation,  and targets mobile devices.</p>
              <p>SVG 2 is currently under development, and will add new ease-of-use features to SVG, as well as more closely integrating with HTML, CSS, and the DOM.</p>
              <p>The SVG Working Group is currently working in parallel on a set of modules for extending prior specifications and adding functionality to CSS, and the new SVG 2 specification will combine those modules with the rest of the SVG framework to work across the full range of devices and platforms.</p>

              <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/Graphics/fx/">CSS-SVG Effects Task Force Started</a></h3>
              <p>The CSS and SVG Working groups have started a joint task force to discuss and develop mutual features such as gradients,  transforms, filters, and animation.  The aim is to specify a coherent underlying model with alternative syntaxes and syntactic sugar, for ease of implementation and authoring.  For more details, see the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Graphics/fx/">FX TF home page</a>.</p>
