[from Minitrue] XMLPP (Jabber moving through the IETF) pretty much aligns with SOAP in its XML variant. The current XMLPP spec draft further disallows the predefined entities*. This came up on a TAG thread. However, for some, that makes XMLPP un-XML. In the same thread, SOAP is considered not un-XML. In anycase, if SOAP/XMLPP/BEEP are converging on an XML variant, sometime this year would be a doubleplusgood time to spec it. And Peter Saint-Andre has just mailed the TAG saying XMLPP would follow a W3C subset of XML, if one were to exist. Generally, it seems no-one wants to be thought of doing un-XML, but don't want XML altogether. Maybe that's an unfair assessment, but I am finding this confusing. Bill de hÓra *[As it turns out, that was a typo in XMLPP, that will be fixed.]
