>The main aspect of the conversion is that the input has a property called semantics its meaning which must be preserved by the process. It's all about layers. If you write a relay from IP to X.25, you know that you're only tampering with the message at one particular level of protocol. You preserve the semantics because you don't touch anything that has any bearing on the semantics. >Havent we stated that XML doesnt have semantics? If XML doesnt have semantics, how can a conversion process preserve semantics? You preserve semantics by only changing things that have no bearing on semantics. Like character encoding.
