Looks like there is a standard open format for vector animation: SVG.

How to create and edit such files?

I expect something like Blender with keyframes and curve editor. Inkscape does not seem to have animation abilities at the first glance.

FOSS is strongly preferred (so Flash-related things are discouraged, but if there is a Flash to animated SVG converter it should be mentioned).

Here there is a list of already existing animation programs (including SVG animation) http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Animation-%28Timeline%29

There are both FOSS and proprietary ones.

1. Already did it ("Animated SVG") and read Wikipedia article. Nothing useful at the first two pages of that google search. 2. I'm asking about a program to edit them, not about format or supported players. – Vi. Aug 4 '10 at 10:21
Programs... [insert your favorite text editor here]. That's it, AFAIK – xsznix Aug 4 '10 at 20:21
@xsznix, I expect nice GUI thing where I can draw them, not code. – Vi. Aug 9 '10 at 12:23

Flash does vector animation in a different format, but AFAIK that's it. – xsznix Aug 9 '10 at 18:32
