I was using javalobby.com's *web site* as a nice example of an online community for geeks, not suggesting that XML-DEV get into the advocacy game. I see javalobby.com as sortof a nice "one stop shop" for what XML.com, xmlhack, and XML-DEV provide the XML community , i.e., a portal, news clipping service, and a discussion forum/archive. Sorry for the confusion. I completely agree that XML is a tool to be understood and developed, not a philosophy to be advocated! *************************************************************************** This is xml-dev, the mailing list for XML developers.
