RE: [xml-dev] Pandora's Box

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

Roy is right about it not being "The Web".   
They should be XML Internet Services (XIS). 

As far as Roy, TimBL, and the w3c lot are 
concerned, they invented "The Web", they 
own "The Web" and anything not of their making 
or design can't use that name.  

Bene.  

The technologies are there for anyone 
to use anyway they please.  All the w3c owns 
or controls is a set of names.

Pandora's Box is only dangerous if opened 
for too long.  Keep hope for more than 
religious reasons.  Heedless worry just messes 
up your face.

The whole "REST as religion" issue has erupted over on www-tag if anyone
is interested.
