[Clipart] svgSearch and tag metadata

[Jonathan Chetwynd]

Jon,

this looks really interesting and similar to work I am developing.

perhaps you could check over my validator and microformat and send me  
comments?

there are good reasons to serve svgs in categories or topics rather  
than individually, also see:
http://www.iconomy.org

the demos run from an old laptop and under continuous development, so  
not always available etc....

cheers
