[XML-DEV Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Re: SGML complexity
I think is usefull to describe XML, XSLT and SGML as standard protocols. Because the social implications of a standard protocol is working on this mail list. There are people that query "You can do [xyz] with [protocol]", then some guy A answer "Yes". And then some guy B answer "Maybe, but use [propietary extension, new lenguaje, etc] instead". After that, a war betwen A and B tryiing to [win]. Thats threads are long, usefull, and because all people post in the correct thread, is easy to ignore by people not interested. Yet another reason to read this beatifull mail list. I want to highlight two facts: - A is [smart, or maybe a genius]. He can do [xyz] with [protocol] and maybe is a good idea, but most normal people are unallowed to figure out how to convulate [protocol] to make [xyz], mostly because at first [xyz] seems imposible. - Fighting against standar protocols are like fighting the tide with sand castles. Is naïve, fun and doomed. Of course, half my facts say "Apply [XYZ]" and half facts say "Avoid [XYZ]". And this why people discuss, because both sides have good points.
