Re: [xml-dev] The edge of chaos: where syntax ends andinterpretation begins

Quoting Tei <oscar.vives@gmail.com>:

If you send a user of a browser a message that they need a "modern  
browser", your investors will invest more.

There is a predatory aspect to web business that reeks of the 19th  
century. Hypocrisy is good for the bottom line these days.  Oh well...

The bottom line of XML is it within its own well-defined boundaries  
does its job.  If the networks, social or silicon, use the  
applications provided smartly, they do their job.  If the rules are  
fudged for advantage or ignored by dint of incompetence, any project  
will fail and if we blame the technology or the technologists who did  
do their jobs, then a business deserves to no longer be one.   True of  
the government too.

The only difference is the assholes make more money than the stupid.   
Life is hard.  XML Doesn't Care So You Have To.
