     Can you decode even simple HTML by just reading it?.
     MusicXML needs to be read along with the DTD.

  Well, yes, that's technically true.   HTML  was  intended  to  be  a
  simple, unobtrusive markup that wouldn't interfere with readability.
  I like to illustrate this by adding HTML to my message,  which  I'll
  do now .....
<p>
  But  most  of the HTML you see in email is utterly unreadable by the
  typical human.  We can expect that most  MusicXML  will  be  similar
  computer gibberish.  Neither could be remotely called "plain" text.

  Of course, it's easy to find ABC that's nearly as unreadable.

  (Maybe  we  should  refer  ABC newbies to Jack Campin for lessons in
  making readable ABC.  ;-)

  I hope the list server doesn't strip out this HTML ...
