Mmm. But in this case the 'supplier' is the app I'm writing - and the user of that app who is inputting data into one of the web pages which my app then tries to take and send to an XML parser. Yes, I
can instead have the app send it first to some other parser but, with something like .NET, I and my fellow web developers and managers and employers don't expect to have to write a parser but expect there to
be one available as part of the framework we use. I think we need a parser which understands the slightly erroneous XML and can find any errors in it: In short we need a parser which has an API which
can allow the web developer (in this case with .NET) to repair XML. I would imagine a MicroXML parser for .NET could do this for any XML which sticks to the limits of that
XML profile but really it needs to be able to handle any kind of XML, like the existing XML parser can (pretty much I think). I still maintain the XML spec of any future XML revision is the starting point for
the production of such parsers (perhaps including MicroXML, or similar profile of XML, parsers). This is perhaps the first step to plugging this gap but why should the spec writers do this? 'He who pays the
piper calls the tune' but if nobody is going to pay the spec writers for the maintenance of the XML specs then why should they repair or fill any gaps like this? ----
