RE: [xml-dev] Better design: "flatter is better" or "nesting is better" ?>> Keep
the audit trail in mind. Some forms of persistence
are for purely legal reasons.
One time an audience member asked me "Why would you ever want to store the
complete XML document if you're using an SQL database?"
Before I could answer, the person in front of him turned around and said "It's a
legal requirement. I work for the state of Utah and we have to preserve all tax
returns in the form they are received".
