Thank you. I think we should draw on XML strength points. People read articles in browser, not plain text. "Add to cart" is just a POST request with id curl -d id=foo yet we have forms and interactivity. Like in literate programming text and data live together, interactive application like a Smalltalk image. In XML we can separate data from presentation. <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="foo.css"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="bar.xsl"?> <root>... Machine receives data, human receives application with documentation, builder. That's exactly what we have today except UI can be plugged to any stored document. To good to be true. I think XML was killed by poor usability. Plain text XML, XHTML and XSLT authoring is not fun. I am trying to uncover it from DOM perspective [1], so far I like it more than Markdown. XHTML and HTML is just a serialization format. HTML is not a good one [2], [3], [4]. XSLT may have nice GUI or compact syntax like RELAX NG.
