I note that as of today, the UK government is mandating (or at least
urging upon itself) the use of XML and XML-related technologies in an
attempt to reduce bureaucratic waste.  XML is the key element in
the UK's e-GIF (e-Government Interoperability Framework) initiative.
In this case, XML's lack of ISO status didn't appear to me a drawback.
I note also that XML Schemas (not DTDs) are referenced.

See the news item I posted for October 11, 2000 in my SGML/XML news
