Description jonathan chetwynd 2008-01-14 12:26:17 UTC 
much of the benefit of SVG is being lost when served as PNG graphics.

many User Agents or browsers such as Opera, Mozilla, Safari-webkit and Batik natively support scaleable vector graphics.
wikipedia serves SVG images such as:

iirc page requests from UAs include a reference to SVG support in the header?
could this bug be marked with keyword 'easy'?

apologies if this is a dupe
