+Summary
+-------
+
+The **svg** package is intended for the automated integration of SVG graphics
+into LaTeX documents. Therefor the capabilities provided by ***Inkscape***---or
+more precisely its command line tool---are used to export the text within a SVG
+graphic to a separate file, which is then rendered by LaTeX. For this purpose
+the two commands `\includesvg` and `\includeinkscape` are provided which are
+very similar to the `\includegraphics` command of the **graphicx** package.
+
+In addition, the package **svg-extract** allows the extraction of these
+graphics into independent files in different graphic formats, exactly as
+it is rendered within the LaTeX document using either ***ImageMagick*** or
+***Ghostscript***
+
+
+Versions
+--------
+
+**v2.00** (2017/03/27)
++ New maintainer: Falk Hanisch
++ Re-implementation from scratch
++ functionality split in two packages **svg** and **svg-extract**
++ package **svg** intended for including SVG files
++ package **svg-extract** for extracting graphic files rendered with LaTeX
++ **svg-extract**: enhanced support for ***ImageMagick***
++ **svg-extract**: support for ***Ghostscript*** added
++ package **subfig** not required anymore
++ support of subfigures stopped due to the huge number of packages which deal
+ with this topic and the large variety of implementing this functionality;
+ naming exported graphics after their consecutive numbering can't be ensured
+ for all variants of subfigures, so it's neglected
+
+
+**v1.0** (2016/10/10)
