SVG is happening: take a look at http://www.svgx.org
and http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/02/04/foaf.html :-)
Websites about SVG that are not updated in a long time, don't mean that SVG is dead. I know for example that some people with a very out of date site are very active on SVG.
On average there's over a 1000 messages a month on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers/
jpeg's, PDFs or whatever format you get in front of you might have had SVG somewhere in the line of its creation.
http://www.svgopen.org will be updated soon, with
information about this year's edition of the conference, which will be in Tokyo
" SVG - wave of the future, or dead-end format? " was probably meant to be a bit blunt and provoke some feedback. It worked.
You are right that SVG is not very much on the forefront of communicating about what's going on with it. And there's a lot of outdated material around and the newer material is not always very easy to find. This is being worked on.
Also on the side of programs working with SVG a lot of progress is made.
Just look around a bit more with the hints i provided
