I think, XML information can be broadly classified as "document" and "data". Your statement above mentions something like, "moving XML from document specifications to ..." which confused me. The "document" nature of XML is roughly (or perhaps largely) analogous to the HTML standard (XHTML is a nice example for this I believe). > Among several other goals, this is intended to simplify development by significantly reducing the need for > procedural code in broad classes of applications. Other than "document" and "data" specifications, complete programming languages have been specified in XML (for e.g XSLT etc). XSD is another good example (mentioning XSD, since you wrote XSD in your latest mail) of specification of a vocabulary in XML (though it's not a language in a sense like XSLT. it's a validation specification for XML data or documents). I find it hard to understand from your mail, where the gaps are as per your proposal? -- Regards, Mukul Gandhi
