@infinimatt@hci.social @palvaro@discuss.systems this hurts me because I'm the type of weirdo who thinks XML is Good, Actually (but not at everything) but also, the comparison is pretty much exact

@infinimatt@hci.social the MSR webpage got confused and listed one of my publications as appearing in "Proceedings of the 2002 ACM workshop on XML security" which sounds like possibly the workshop I would least like to attend

@infinimatt@hci.social I miss XML. It had the best of both worlds: the space overhead of a text format coupled with the unreadability of a binary format! And I always enjoyed doing smart things with XSLT, I just loved puzzling with that language.
