Correct.
I'm currently doing consulting for an italian startup web factory and we
are in the process of creating those "middle men" that do this kind of
"tagging" using XSLT capabilities.
Jon is right saying that XML is not perfect for the job today in many
situations. I never said the opposite. But Kevin is right when he says
that XML is the future.
Why? because it's addictive just like Java. Once you get it, it changes
the way you look at things... and you'll never be able to get back :)
