I would really appreciate it if you could at least acknowledge that business decision-making is not the ONLY criteria for spending time and/or money on technology. You don't have to come around to my perspective that business decision-making is in fact a very bad influence on the technology development process, but I've had far more than enough business-supremacy for one lifetime. Short-term business vision seems to be a pretty good explanation for an enormous amount of foul nastiness currently roaming the XML world. I'd rather talk angle brackets than dollar signs, and suspect that both the angle brackets and the dollar signs might get something out of the conversation. -- Simon St.Laurent Ring around the content, a pocket full of brackets Errors, errors, all fall down! http://simonstl.com
