All I know is that every day I see another article in the trade > > press about this; today's is > > http://www.networkmagazine.com/article/NMG20021223S0005 The trade press also talks about (in this article) "The Extensible Markup Language (XML) protocol ..." "XML messages can bring [...] load balancers to a stop" "As an environment, XML is technically an application problem; it only requires a TCP stream to function " "Traditional firewalls don't work because most XML implementations will travel over Port 80, which is open to HTML traffic" "...Web service protocols such as XML ..." And these are just the immediately obvious things. So what is talked about isn't necessarily a real issue, but it probably does deserve discussion and illumination.
