I certainly hope we're not going to see an xmlization of a perfectly good
syntax.  I mean, which would you rather read

<fact>
        <type>recordType</type>
        <field1>Some Value</field1>
        <field2>Other Value</field2>
</fact>

or

(recordType (field1 "Some Value")(field2 "Other Value"))

Scale it up in volume and the verbosity makes spotting patterns much
harder.

Just say no to markup languages.  Its gone more than far enough.

Subject: JESS: Rule Markup Language Initiative


Hi Folks,

I have an email here from a Said Tabet regarding an international
panel being formed to develop a standard Rule Markup Language
(RuleML.) I know many of you have expressed an interest in such a
thing so I am passing along their web site information:

  http://www.dfki.de/ruleml

I encourage anyone with a sincere interest to get involved. I am
interested in having Jess interoperate with any such standard that is
developed.
