XML Is Too Hard?
Interesting post from one of XML’s co-creators, who actually lives in Vancouver -
XML Is Too Hard
“XML is a bouncing thriving five-year-old now, and yet I’ve been feeling unsatisfied with it, particularly in recent times. In particular in my capacity as a programmer.
During the process of setting up ongoing, for the first time in a year or more I wrote a bunch of code to process arbitrary incoming XML, and I found it irritating, time-consuming, and error-prone.”
