Can't find out anything, there is Batik 1.0 but that is some sort of image editing program.
Your right, Batik [xml.apache.org] is used for Scalable Vector Graphics [w3.org]

The insight in this thread [webmasterworld.com]I don't care for.
There are more of these references existent. However they aren't worth the effort at least to me to retireve the data. At least at this moment.
These folks are going to task to keep things quiet. Rather than providing accurate links to support their spidering.
IMO with all this involvement by some many different parties it would seem confusing (to say the least) to see some spidering occurring which appears to be from a casual Cable & Wireless ISP Customer not identifying themselves as a bot while the IP mixes with mainstream bots who willing identify themselves.
Eventually I'll get a grasp, making a decision in the process.
It is my desire NOT be my normal over-bearing self in this instance, however it appears I might end up with a handful of ranges to add to my htacces which may not have seem related just a few months ago.
