Jon,

my apologies,

please can you follow the instructions here: http://www.openicon.org ?
and chase the bugs with firefox and safari?
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269482
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12499

I will be writing up a paper on why this methodology was chosen.
for the present, <use> remote reference with the openicon validator:
	allows for easier maintenance by the author.
	dramatically reduces file size, and number of files being circulated.
		copy and paste, for any icon is ~30 bytes dependent on url length.
	chunks topics so icon users can easily find icons in the set instantly.
	ensures every icon has a title.
	and much more...

your understanding would jump if you read the requirements:
http://www.openicon.org/requirements.html
and registered a set of icons:
http://www.openicon.org/db/validate_file.php

best wishes

finally,
batik and amaya are open source, why can't you install these?
