Question:
Do you want data typing in the core of XML?

Current Tallies:
No, do not include data typing in the core of XML: 75 votes
Yes, include data typing in the core of XML: 8 votes

Voting methodology:
This, of course, is not a scientific poll but only good enough for hip-shot
accuracy. Each vote cast has an associated IP address stored with it so that
I can verify that each vote came from a unique IP address. Yes, I know
people can submit multiple votes from multiple IP addresses, but I am
guessing, given the lack of seriousness here, folks won't bother.
