That might be right for types of XML documents. If we go into instances of xml documents, 1% read by people is way too high... Of course, that is a SWAG "A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." -Antoine de Saint-Exupery Toby Considine TC9, Inc TC Chair: oBIX & WS-Calendar TC Editor: EMIX, EnergyInterop U.S. National Inst. of Standards and Tech.

Hi Folks, What percentage of XML documents are exclusively processed by machines? Allow me to explain what I mean by "exclusively processed by machines." First, consider the opposite - XML documents that are processed by humans. An XML document is received and then displayed directly to a human. Or the XML document is received, transformed to a visually friendly form such as HTML, and then the visually friendly form is displayed to a human. XML documents that are exclusively processed by machines don't have a human in the loop. An XML document is received and then processed by a machine. No human ever sees the XML. Are there any statistics on the percentage of XML documents that are exclusively processed by machines? I'll take a wild guess and say that 99% of all XML documents are exclusively processed by machines. Is that a reasonable estimate? /Roger _______________________________________________________________________ XML-DEV is a publicly archived, unmoderated list hosted by OASIS to support XML implementation and development.
