It's great to see Google has a brain about this. XML is sooo hyped up, and there are so many fan boys that it's generally not worth getting into a discussion about its merits lest you start a religious war. It's cool that Google looks beyond the Dilbert-like mission statement of XML and recognizes its failures as well as its strengths, not to mention the suitability to purpose for their needs.
