There are many ways that markup can touch OO. I want to point out that we are talking about at least three different things: * inheritance and subclassing among XML element types -- I don't think that this really has much to do with OO at all. I do think that the XML standard should explicity support these features. * application-specific conventions for marking up OO patterns in XML documents. This is what the prototype example seemed to do. I do not think we need to nor should change the XML standard to support these types of concepts, but they are interesting examples of XML modelling of structures from other disciplines. * patterns for representing XML documents *in memory* *in applications* (i.e. MVC, constraint-based, aggregation). Perhaps I am the only one who got confused by the way the thread is sliding between these without differentiation, but if not, hopefully I've helped clarify it for someone.
