Synchronicity or pseudonym? Bill Gates announces Microsoft commitment to

["Ken North" <kennorth@sbcglobal.net>]

In another thread we've been discussing XPath navigation, declarative and
procedural programming. Yesterday Bill Gates weighed in on the issue during his
address to a conference.

"With the declarative language project, the goal is to make programming
declarative rather than procedural. "Most code that's written today is
procedural code. And there's been this holy grail of development forever, which
is that you shouldn't have to write so much [procedural] code," Gates said."

Is this synchronicity or is Bill Gates using a pseudonym for xml-dev
discussions?
