Well, Ian writes that Mozilla XUL like Avalon XAML is a proprietary (XML) UI language. Thus, according to my understanding of proprietary (that is, controlled by a single vendor) it can't be an open standard by definition. I guess because nowadays everybody claims everything is an open standard including for example Windows that the word has somehow lost its meaning. - Gerald ------------------- Gerald Bauer XUL Alliance | http://xul.sourceforge.net United XAML | http://xaml.sourceforge.net Interested in hiring Gerald Bauer?
