Re:  XML support in browsers?
Don't worry. Hate crimes legislation focusing on hate speech against  
XSL will be going through the US congress this summer that will put an  
end to this. First offenders will be sent to reeducation camps lead by  
G. Ken Holman and Wendel Piez. Second and serially offenders will be  
forced (imagine Clockwork Orange) to read all of David Carlisle's  
emails.
