What is SVGs relationship to other W3C initiatives?
A. The W3C was founded as an international industry consortium that would lead the World Wide Web to its full potential by developing common protocols that promote evolution and ensure interoperability. To promote consistency and leverage on the Web, the W3C has designed SVG to be compatible with its own efforts (DOM1, DOM2, CSS, XML, XPointer, XSLT, XSL, SMIL, HTML, and XHTML) and other standard technologies (ICC, URI, UNICODE, sRGB, ECMAScript/JavaScript, and Java).
