<h2> <a id="abstract" name="abstract">Abstract</a> </h2>

<p>This document specifies requirements for SVG Tiny 1.2, a

backwardly-compatible update of SVG Tiny 1.1 which adds some new

features from SVG 1.2 add adds other features based on implementor and

designer feedback on SVG Tiny 1.1.</p>

<p> <em>This section describes the status of this document at the time

of its publication. Other documents may supersede this document. A list

<p class="novel">

This document is the second public working draft of the SVG Tiny 1.2

requirements. It compares how the SVG Tiny 1.2 Candidate Recommendation
met the requirements listed in the first draft of the  requirements, and
in one case softens a requirement that could not be met.
The requirements are grouped into those derived from use
cases for SVG Tiny, then General, Architectural, and Functional
requirements.</p>

<h1 id="general">2.&#xA0;General</h1>

 <p>GEN 1.&#xA0;&#xA0;Two profiles are defined: <i>SVG Tiny 1.2 ? Image</i>,and <i>SVG Tiny 1.2 ? Application</i>. The profiles <b><del>must not</del><ins>should not</ins> </b>contain
 optional parts (i.e. all features must be implemented by all vendors) in order to claim compliance with a profile. <!--(OK)--></p>
 <p class="note">Changed. The Working Group tried to avoid optional parts, but was not able to do this in all cases. SVG Tiny 1.2 has a small number of optional parts.
 On the other hand, because of the uDOM, the number of mobile-friendly profiles could be reduced from two (in SVG 1.1) to one (in SVG 1.2).</p>
