Actually I think that for many of developers that disconnect exists and 
is longstanding.

But I don't think it has any bearing on the viability of pushing XML 
down the stack in the way Kurt's report seemed to be suggesting 
(whether or not that was what Don _meant_ to say). There's too much 
exisiting infrastructure for that to be viable outside of relatively 
closed environments.

Like I said: look at IPv6, or look at multicast.
