Is there anyone working on a binary version of XML?

Nah, we're getting work done already -- we need to goof off once in a
while.

Here's my translation of the above paragraph:

 One of these days I'd really love to stop talking about what is and
 isn't XML, though I know it's fun, and start talking about what we
 can do with structured documents, whether they're in text format (as
 XML, HTML, SGML, etc.), in binary format, in databases, or available
 through abstract interfaces like SAX, the DOM, and Groves.


All the best,


David
