I have written a little rant^H^H^H^H^H white paper to inform my fellow
developers about the risks inherent in HTTP transmissions of XML, especially
when processing an XML document as if it were (or as) an HTML form data
submission.

It is surely not perfect, so I would appreciate some peer review. Please
have a look at http://skew.org/xml/misc/xml_vs_http/ and address comments to
me directly so I can correct the defects without too much public
embarrassment.

Also, apologies for the HTML in the document, if it causes problems; it was
saved directly from MS Word, in great haste.

Thank you,

   - Mike
