I can't honestly believe that, in lieu of just trying to 'maintain' 
topicness on this list, tone things down on the politics/business 
discussion a bit, and get back to the xml technical/development side 
of things, the creation of *another* list is being recommended.

Sheesh.  If that doesn't highlight the problems with some of the 
personalities and mindsets behind the XML front, I dunno what does 
... I've never met a bigger bunch of techno-beaureaucrats!  Well, 
maybe in the Tandem days ...
