Repeat after me: I will never leave parsing XML up to a regexp especially if my xml may contain CDATA and Comment sections. I will never...
Unless you are 100% certain the file you are parsing is directly under your control, ie: no comments, no cdatas, params always in the same order, same indentation, same bloody encoding [pardon my french], well, you just will have to acces the data using some kind of DOM or abstract tree representation.
I don't think he thinks no one uses XML, he seems to deplore the fact that some people don't get it at all and resort to heavy duty tools for trivial tasks [thus justifying his example above].
Basically XML is quite simple, but that's not the matter, the problem is that XML bundles ACTUAL DATA, it's all about the complexity of those data, not the API used to access it [although writing a DOM implementation is a real pain]
Everynight it begins like this: User browsing site, happy, shinny, dhtmly site. User making a mistake. User clicking 'Back'. JavaScript automaton generating the pages going K-Boom.
Now if only I were granted one of those wishes:
- Being able to control the back button behavior
- Being able to say "this is braindead, let's use XUL" when my boss insists on writting a 10,000 lines javascript automaton for the core of his dhtml website.

More than four years later, Mozilla has generated far more press releases than products and has done nothing to help the Netscape browser retake any ground from Microsoft. This was one massively multiplayer project that never took off.
Did it? Really? Oh, I guess that lizard thingie laying on my desktop is just an explorer glitch then.
I think that the author of course doesn't give a damn about quality, but quantity. This is exactly the same debate as 'quake 1 sucks, no one plays it.'
These kind of things are bound to happen when talking about XML webservices in.net for a proactive leveraging of the end-user prod -*BINGO*

XDOC == XUL + WebServices for Office.Net
on
Microsoft takes on PDF

· Score: 4, Informative
After reading about xdocs last week, we came to the following conclusion that XForm is in no way a end-user 'static' document format.
What it does is 'just' provide an link between a document and databases through.net WinForms embeded in an office doc, talking to a database via a webservice.
What does that mean?
Well, now the office suite will be able to do the same thing as XUL+Soap in moz, in a much nicer way for the end user [remember, word _IS_ the computer for most persons].
I think that's a sweet move, as long as the webservices talking to XForms are not crippled and accessible from Moz, everyone will be happy... and as long as it's not yet another vb-only scripting language :
At some point, the worm will be detected, thus the slow infection rate will not be optimal.
What if... in order to decide wether the worm should switch to 'Turbo' infection speed, the worm queries google news for 'worm $0', and if the number of results > $we_have_been_discovered/, bang!
Previous worms used irc, but that doens't guarantee the author to be anonymous, does it?

Until then, I'll stick to the yellow pills.
