Microsoft Wants To Participate In SVG Development
rossendryv writes "After many years of fighting against the standard, Microsoft announced they are joining the WC3's SVG working group to help with the development of SVG. 'We recognize that vector graphics are an important component of the next-generation Web platform,' said Patrick Dengler, senior program manager on Microsoft's Internet Explorer team in a blog post."
What does XAML have to do with SVG? Hell if you're going to bitch about XAML, maybe you should complain about WinForms and MFC too. They're equally unrelated.
So how does this work? Do you send Microsoft an invoice per post or is Steve Ballmer playing your skin flute right now?
Mozilla too.
Wow, sent an e-mail as suggested when clicking on "use classic" banner, and got a fast response that addressed my msg
So... By your logic. Who should be able to contribute.... I haven't really found a good OS yet...
Linux Junk They can't even go together and make a decent UI without forcing people to edit config files.
Windows Junk they can't make an OS that can run well without admin access.
OS X junk It only supports apple approved drivers. And you can't even change themes.
xBSD junk See linux but with a worse UI.
VMS junk See BSD then make sure all the comands are very robust and lets add some additional random charactors to make it work...
All OS's have their plusses and Minuses and Windows isn't really that bad
If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
no one cares about open source. the sooner OSS people understand this the better. people care about what works the best and what looks the best (in that order).
If you mod me down, I will become more powerful than you can imagine....
