Preliminary evidence suggests that: """Ie, <binding ...><unbound/></binding> compresses to the same as <binding .../>""" I.e., that: """11 to 13 percent difference between the two compressed""" He is comparing processing time with a modified XSLT script (to get transformation difficulty/speed rather than just parse time). However, this does suggest that a reasonable response is that we expect gzipping to be the standard way of dealing with the transmission overhead of the verbosity. We do have some concerns about processing results on mobile devices, but perhaps these arguments can be mobilized against any format not specifically designed for them (or, perhaps binary XML is the answer...I don't know). Cheers, Bijan.
