I have been wandering the Web searching for my Wife's relatives (surname Kilcawley. Know anyone?) and have learned very quickly that there is a *huge* amount of genealogy stuff/activity on the Web. Most of it revolves around a genealogy file format called GEDCOM that apparantly originated with the Church of the Latter Day Saints. This is a snippet of Gedcom: 1 NAME Archibald /BARD_(Beard)/ 1 SEX M 1 BIRT 2 DATE SEENOTES 2 PLAC Antrim,Ireland 1 DEAT 2 DATE FEB 1765 Sure looks like a cool XML application to me! I mean,the whole point of these GEDCOM files is publishing/interchange of genealogy data. Richly structured hierarchies. Oodles of scope to show of spiffy XLL linking, spiffy XSL rendering, intelligent search agents. The whole nine yards. Has anyone looked into this? If not, anyone interested in helping to get a ball rolling? xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers. To post, mailto:xml-dev@i...
