I apologize for the confusion.

I meant to say we are NOT "burning-in" any specific XML- based 
language, and are taking a general purpose approach to provide
interoperability for any XML- based system.

My apologies to the list if this has been overly-discussed, I've been out
of town . . . 

The last sentence has apparently been edited and a key negative is
syntactically implied without being semantically present: "'burning-in'
only specific XML based languages . . . " is then followed by "but" --
which states an implicit exception to the former, and reverses the
rhetorical weight of that preceding clause by the following "rather."  In
effect, how can this be a "general purpose approach" if the handingly of
"any" XML 1.0 language, cXML, CBL and BizTalk, as noted, are part of "only
specific XML based languages (wouldn't "schemas" be more accurate in
context?)?  If only specific languages are burned in, how is there
"interoperability for any XML system?"  

In short, can the implications of the last two sentences of that paragraph
be explicitly unpacked?

To be sure, the is a sense of "validation" (pun intended) for the XML
community in this innovation which has a range of implications . . .
including, of course, that some schemas seem to _not_ be valid . . .
unless there is a meaning in teh original post to which I'm replying which
is not overt.

respectfully,
