Is SVG a part of HTML5?

SVG is variously described as  'part of HTML5 specification' or an HTML5 extension. In either case, I am very happy as I am a fan of SVG.

In HTML documents you could embed an in-line SVG code.
SVG in some cases appear superior to Canvas in HTML. SVG creates prefabricated graphics that is part of the documnet model which can be accessed by the ID for any event based action, where as the graphics for use in CANVAS needs to be created and rendered during page loading.
