Absolutely not. XML is XML. Possibly casual observers might confuse "XML" with "XML 1.0 + XML Namespaces" but a FAQ is all that's needed to sort that out. The only reason such a confusion would be important is if it made it too impractical for existing parsers to handle MicroXML. For all the parsers I know of, it would work just fine, or need very minor tweaks. Do you know of any where that is not the case?
For me (and for quite a few who have spoken up on the list, putting paid to your "everyone" claim), exactly what is needed is something "designed to be a subset of XML 1.0 but not of XML 1.0 + XML Namespaces." -- Uche Ogbuji http://uche.ogbuji.net Weblog: http://copia.ogbuji.net Poetry ed @TNB: http://www.thenervousbreakdown.com/author/uogbuji/ Founding Partner, Zepheira http://zepheira.com Linked-in: http://www.linkedin.com/in/ucheogbuji Articles: http://uche.ogbuji.net/tech/publications/ Friendfeed: http://friendfeed.com/uche Twitter: http://twitter.com/uogbuji http://www.google.com/profiles/uche.ogbuji
