But more importantly I wanted to emphasize that a _strategy_ is
needed.
For example, with Inkscape our strategy for competing effectively with
OO Draw is pretty straightforward. First, we shoot for gaining really
good SVG compatibility (OO Draw is weak here, and it seems like SVG is
growing to become an extremely important file format in the open source
community). Second, we try to make the project very enjoyable to work
And as important as working with the rest of open source is, it's also
important to be reasonably compatible with major closed source apps. So if,
for example, Illustrator creates slightly broken SVG's (I'm not picking on
Illustrator, I'm not entirely sure it will export them, even.) you need to
be able to cope with that somehow.

Just a note on this particular example:
Surely it would be wiser to create a filter that converts the broken SVG
into valid SVG. There really shouldn't be any cases where this would
cause a loss of information, unless it's having another document type
embedded in the SVG (but that's plain silly).
