It's not like ASN1 didn't exist (or still exist). It's hard to say what'll catch on, I guess.

- dogma1138 4y agoIsn’t ASN.1 is a binary encoding without a universal human readable representation?
- Blackthorn 4y agoI would not call machine-produced XML at all human-readable. Of course, I suppose some amount of human-readability is pretty important. It's why textproto became a de-facto standard for protobufs.
- dogma1138 4y agoThey are quite often not, but the. XML does have style sheets which make things a bit easier since every browser can render an XML into a human only readable format that way.
- zmix 4y ago"Human readable" in XML lingo means, actually, "Human readable after transformation". Or: add some CSS to it and it's easily consumable.
