> Re-reading your message, Phill, I finally noticed the "for web pages I don't think there is actually that much difference between email newsletters and web pages anyway. What tends to affect whether one uses formal markup is the immediacy of the document. However, the demand for a new, simple for users, markup language reflects the typical natural history of computing standards, which start lean and mean and bloat to the point that newcomers fail to realise the original intentions and eventually come up with a new solution to the original problem. (Markup in this form on the web ought to be achieved as the result of the final styling for rendering, not as the interchange format.)
