RE: Why 90 percent of XML standards will fail

["Bullard, Claude L (Len)" <clbullar@ingr.com>]

"John R. Rymer is principal consultant and founder of Upstream Consulting, a
strategy-consulting 
group in Emeryville, Calif. Upstream has developing business strategies for
several XML technology companies."

So he is a bear in the woods doing what bears do, then offering a map of
places not to drink 
and collecting a fee for being an upstream bear.

Supposed to be on ZDNet somewhere, but I saw it on Yahoo.  The guy's
right, of course, but remember Theodore Sturgeon's Law of Popular Art
Forms, which extends nicely to XML (or any other) standards; it says:

 "95% of everything is crap".
