[libreoffice-users] Re: Why such large svg files in LibreOffice (Linux)?

Hi :)
I think the Design Team's mailing list address is 
Design@Global.LibreOffice.Org
It might be good to forwards your last email to them.  I think they can help
you set-up some space in the LibreOffice wiki for uploading test-files to.  

Also they would probably be glad to see new people join so if you or anyone
else wants to join in then please  do! :)
Regards from 
Tom :)
