XAML Shapes == SVG - Comments?

[Gerald Bauer]

Hello,

Ron DeSerranno (of Mobiform XAML fame) comments on the role of XAML
in the SVG world:

As far as covering XAML on the SVG developers list. I think XAML
should use the Xaml news group, but as I mentioned at my talk at
SchemaSoft the other week and here on this list, wrt the shapes sub
section of XAML and SVG I don't really differentiate the two. Given
that, healthy discussion about the pro's and cons of each should be
showing up in both groups....

What's your take? Do you agree with Ron that XAML shapes and SVG
are pretty much identical?

Hello,

here's some insight from Ronan Oger on the svg-developer mailinglist :

Don't sweat it about learning xaml... xaml is pretty much just svg
run through a longer-name xslt filter. if you know svg, you are
already a xaml expert (well, at least compared to the competition...)

Any comments?
