Re: [xml-dev] What is syntax lifting?

No, Roger.

Generally "lifting" is used in relation to using a function / concept in a way that makes its scope wider, so this makes sense.

On the other hand, it seems to me that lifting everything to XML format would not be a lossless experience in every case...

Cheers,
Dimitre

Hi Folks,

Recently I heard this term "syntax lifting" or sometimes just "lifting."

What do they mean?
