Good evening.

With respect, I have read this remark of Mr. Paul Tyson, and I want to
respond to it.

Balisage and Declarative Amsterdam are not over yet; nor is XML.

Eventually, everyone utilize XML; even those who set up the unnecessary
format JSON ActivityStreams (the JSON version of Atom ActivityStreams),
who insiste to utilize JSON, due to laziness - even though SXML (sxml /
scm) is better - resort to XML.

I advise to share the contents of XML over PPN (Peer-to-peer networks),
such as BitTorrent, eDonkey2000, Gnutella, MUTE, SoulSeek, et cetera.

Just because it appears that only five to fifteen organizations retain
most of traffic and try to cripple the good advantages of the internet
does not mean that it is so.

XML is designed to sustain, and it works!

Kind reagrds,
