Re: [Dev-luatex] A native support for SVG

I request a native support for SVG in XeTeX and in LuaTeX, I think it would be a great thing.

I don't know about xetex, but I would (re)consider adding SVG to the core luatex engine if, but only if, there was an * open source (GPL-compatible) * portable * reliable * complete * standalone * still actively supported * C or C++ library implementing SVG inclusion support. If you have any pointers to a library that satisfies all of those demands, please feel free to post a pointer. Otherwise, any support I could give in the binary would amount to nothing more than running svg2pdf, and you can do that in lua code yourself easily enough, so consider that a waste of time.
