Mine neither. However, it will be trivial to find real world examples that
really show binXML in a good light... not choosing an unfair comparison,
but just pointing out that the use cases many XML people work with day to
day (actual document processing) aren't greatly in need of binary
representations, but other equally valid environments are :-)

That's the spirit. Even if a research project fails, at least the fact
that it failed and the results it found along the way are still very
valuable pieces of information. In fact, you can probably say that there
is no such thing as a failed research project.
