Somewhere back in the archives is The TAO of XML thread.  
I and others said, the most important part of XML may not 
be its technical elegance, but the way it is applied. 
 
In essence, it enables all parties to think through the 
data and names.  It doesn't force them to think through 
the semantics, but it enables them know when what they 
meant to say wasn't understood as long as they are 
validating IAW expectations.

Other means will do that too.  XML is the one 
the most people have agreed to use in the most places.

Agreed. Whether you use a team approach or have an individual with
experience in both sides of this issue, incorporating the knowledge of both
the subject matter experts and the programmers is important. It is not an
either/or proposition. Effective communication and education on both sides
is key.
