When you are attempting to create a product that has broad reach,
the politics of standards become risks, roadblocks, slowdowns,
and sometimes showstoppers for hard working innovative and vulnerable
small companies like I represent. Hence, IMHO pushing hard on vendors to not
play politics with standards and to be consistent in their support is fair.

Subject: Re: MSXML for Java Questions


I have recently found the best easiest way (i cost nothing) way to introduce
the company I consult for to the capabilities of XML, is through a simple,
but effective, part of their application using IE5. Reports are a successful
area to show ROI using XML.

I use as many capabilities of IE5 as no-one else is thereabouts with browser
technology. I can never really understand why people who are trying to get
technology to the masses are critisized. I'm sure there are many other XML
type apps which have non-standard parts - at least from what I have heard on
the list.

MS maybe go a bit nuts pushing technology sometimes, but then I remember
writing for the first Mosaic browser.
