The W3C is actively working on related standards. For example: http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ui http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms ..and various other specifications that have not yet reached the public working draft state. > If not, then most of this argumentation is probably useless spinning of > wheels. To each his own, XUL-wise. The argument is simply that the term "XUL" only means "XUL", as in the language used by Mozilla, not any XML User Interface Language (that would be "XUIL"). There is obviously no reason that people should not use their own declarative UI language, and indeed there is no reason to restrict the discussion to XML-based solutions. As I have mentioned before, the "Z" language was in use in the early 1970s and is just as much a declarative UI language as any of the solutions (such as XWT, XUL or XAML) that are being developed today. (Some people would even question whether XML is a good language to use when designing UI.) -- Ian Hickson )\._.,--....,'``. fL U+1047E /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,. http://index.hixie.ch/ `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.' ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The SF.net Donation Program.
