RE: [xml-dev] Percentage of web services supporting XML versus JSON

["Costello, Roger L." <costello@mitre.org>]

Loac says that a data format should have these properties:

	- Hyperlinks and link relations
    	- Binary, explicit sizes, efficient to parse
    	- Small, exponentially smaller the larger the data gets
    	- Good type coverage, extensible
    	- No NULL value
    	- Fully specified

Do you agree with those properties? Would you add other properties? Would you remove some of the properties?

Okay - Loic's talk is up, though he's in the middle of a conference.

<http://ninenines.eu/talks/bed/bed.html>

Why Not JSON? is slide 19. Why Not XML? is slide 22.

He sketches out his (binary) alternative from 23 on.  I want to see a 
lot more detail, but I wish this had existed a decade ago if only for 
conversational use.

Thanks,
Simon
