[RFC] Whitepaper on Visual XML

[Dan Ancona]

I've just been informed of the Visual XML name collision.  There's no
relation to the two other than they both have something to do with XML.
Deep apologies to the Visual XML tool developers @
http://www.pierlou.com/visxml/ .  I'll cook up a new name for my stuff &
post it ASAP.

(If a good name pops into someone's head, by all means send it to me.  I'm
terrible at naming stuff!)
