This one looks good. I opened it in Inkscape and I can open it and edit 
it, which is what matter most.

A minor issue though. I can see in your PNG export that you are using 
"fancy" fonts, and I don't have them on my Linux box, and we probably 
don't either on the autobuilder machine which compiles the docs. 
However, this should be fixable. You could look at the fonts I used on 
https://docs.yoctoproject.org/_images/releases.svg and you/we could 
probably use those or similar ones.

Actually, the style of the SVG template should be updated. I liked the 
style of your original diagram and I must confess it influence me for 
https://docs.yoctoproject.org/_images/releases.svg :)

This being said, we should be careful not to convey too much meaning 
through colors, and keep in mind colorblind people and readers on e-ink 
(grayscale) displays. Accessibility is important and this is something 
you could improve  in the version you've just submitted. The first 
version was almost perfect with respect to this. All we need is manage 
to import it properly with an Open Source editor like Inkscape.

It sounds great! I'll be happy to help if I can.
Thanks in advance,
