   It seems you're in denial. If a list of XAML tags
is not a "XAML tag reference" than please let us know
what you call it.

   Also allow me to quote some descriptions from the
XAML tag reference:

  * Table - Table is used to display complex data in
tabular form using "XAML".

  * Pane - Provides a way to define window properties
in "XAML" without launching a new window.

  * and so on


   Finally, allow me to highlight some descriptions
that show that XAML is clearly targeted as an HTML
alternative:

  * Paragraph -	Implements a block-level element used
to render text in a paragraph. Rendering behavior is
analagous to that of the paragraph element in HTML.

  * Note - Implements a Note element, which is
analagous to the BLOCKQUOTE Element in HTML.

  * and so on

   - Gerald
