XML has almost no value whatsoever.
The reasons are tools, this includes manual memory management and GC  
issues, and library "developement" issues.
There are also "must" have features provided by either language or by  
compiler (then it leads to platform dependency).

I know some of you (Walter is one) don't like the idea.
All you need to do is just check "any" popular open-source HP library and  
see how wrong you are.

I have absolutely no idea why people against this idea.
Maybe before "@" you were right, but now?
