Summaries please! (RE: We gotta break up these digests)

[Steven Livingstone, ITS, SENM]

Wouldn't it be cool if there was some way of intelligently definining what
people write so it would be very simple to get information you were after
;-)

... seriously, has anyone done any kind of work on DTD's or Schema's for
mailing disussions? People would post using these schema's and that way we
could have a simple XML parser which could get the information we wanted
rather than walking through logs etc..
