AFAIK, there is need for some php coding for adding SVG support to cchost

Cool, those can complete the set we already have at 
http://openclipart.org/cgi-bin/navigate/transportation/roadsigns

There is a Perl script which can be used to add metadata to a lot of 
files http://search.cpan.org/dist/SVG-Metadata/scripts/svg_annotate

I don't remember if this is working or not at the moment, but the upload 
form accepts archives (tar, tgz, zip) and in theory it should take one 
set of metadata and apply it to all files in the archive.
The bug report is still open:
