Thank you for that, I haven't laughed so much for ages. These guys are talented satirists. I can't wait to get my "arms around XML namespaces" and give them a loving hug. Presumably a "catalytic role" is designed to reduce harmful emissions to the atmosphere? Where I work we have decided that there is a definite place for environmentally friendly XML, made mostly from recycled materials, and fully biodegradable. We were also wondering if there might be a market for stain resistant XML.

Subject: Sky is falling again... http://news.com.com/2010-1071-961117.html?tag=fd_nc_1 "Just because an XML message is "valid" (meets XML standards) does not mean it can work with other valid XML messages, or that it will behave as expected. As a result, we're losing control of the hundreds of disparate XML vocabularies we've developed, the mountains of XML-ized data we've generated and the millions of XML-enabled software components we've created." Somewhat wide-ranging and IMHO, not entirely coherent (XML as a branding issue?) but nevertheless worth reading to see what everyone else is reading.
