Why such a pathologically broken example? Look at the position of dhonbis on that map, then look what would happen if that node were placed nearer the bottom. Sweavo

graphviz and wiki help this way bchlawrence
I don't think the license is GPL: http://www.graphviz.org/License.php --Salty-horse 20:24, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
The license is CPL, which is a recognized open source license (though not as aggressive as the GPL). --Stephen North <north@graphviz.org> 6 October 2006
[edit] Graphviz + SVG + MediaWiki
For reference: As of January 30, 2006 MediaWiki rejects Graphviz's SVG output with this message:
- Upload warning
- This file contains HTML or script code that may be erroneously interpreted by a web browser.
In particular, MediaWiki doesn't seem to like <g> elements inside <g> elements, and also doesn't like <title> elements. So eliminating these elements makes the document acceptable to MediaWiki. —Fleminra 06:12, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
- Possibly related: MediaWiki bug 4388. —Fleminra 20:16, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

- I uploaded one file to commons.wikimedia.org now, and nested g elements passed, but I still needed to remove all title tags. I'm going to suggest Commons to solve the problem instead of us. --TuukkaH 02:34, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
We've had problems figuring out what is both 'standard' and actually works in the popular implementations of SVG. At some point we considered the Adobe SVG plugin (now Acrobat) to be the reference, but even that has been a moving target sometimes. With native SVG support in Firefox we also consider that an important implementation. Finally, in adding Cairo path-based renderers, we hope ultimately these driver issues become someone else's problem! --Stephen North <north@graphviz.org> 6 October 2006
- Luckily the MediaWiki bug is now marked as fixed and SVG files with these standard features are accepted. There's at least one Graphviz diagram with title tags already at commons:Image:Versiones_de_TCP_en_BSD.svg. --TuukkaH 21:13, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] lisp2dot merging
In an Articles for deletion debate, it was decided that lisp2dot should be merged here and subsequently redirect here (as it does now). I would take care of the merging, but I would have no idea of what I'm talking about, really. So I'd better not. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 10:46, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rhode Island and New York
Did anyone else notice that according to the example, Rhode Island borders New York? —Preceding unsigned comment added by David!! (talk • contribs) 22:56, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
