Why was XML was adopted?  To 
give anarchists a safe sandbox so the 
rest of the world could get on with the 
business of the Internet. 

That is toleration.

Uh, Len - 404 Not Found.  No central storage.  Tolerance for a wide variety

Plenty of anarchy, if you care to acknowledge it.  It's still there, as
