Jasc Webdraw is dead? :-(

When I say "broken" I mean files such as:

  http://openclipart.org/clipart/special/patterns/pattern-checkers-2.svg

are not valid because they don't bind the required namespaces. The specification
requires that they do, and some multi-namespace applications such as Mozilla
won't render the SVG without them. Unfortunately some tools and viewers
(including ASV) don't create or require the namespace bindings, so awareness of
this issue is low. I've written up a document to explain this and other common
problems in SVG files and how to fix them at:

  http://jwatt.org/svg/authoring/

The section that's relevant here is:

  http://jwatt.org/svg/authoring/#namespace-binding

The doc has been reviewed by members of the SVG WG and other leading SVG
figures, so I'm not making this up. ;-)
