Great link! I have looked into using SVG for mapping applications. It would simplify development of mapping apps. However, size of a country map with some detail can be pretty big, around 2Mb so it wouldn't play well on e.g. mobile apps where the vectors could come to use. Anyway, there are many free maps here to play with http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_maps http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:SVG_maps
