That's a pretty good write up.
Wow. Live long enough and you're likely to see just about everything.
But, honestly, I never thought I'd witness the W3C adopting the
precautionary principle in my life time. Congratulations!
Binary XML is just about the second dumbest idea I could imagine. And
I don't mean that in just the negative way. As I've quipped
(elsewhere) before, try hard enough and you'll have reinvented IIOP.
Which, as we all know, is a fantastic idea in and of itself.
