They allow all kinds of things that a strict xml parser would not, like not requiring the <?xml 1.0 ?> tag at the beginning, etc.


LOL .. Which is exaclty what XML isn't about.

XML was designed to be strict and to enforce contraints over data to make it uniform across the board.

It's not like HTML where every browser and it's brother is making their own new tags.

XML needs to be strict and I don't like how companies go out and start making their own rules.


Oh, and the SIDL.xml is an attempt at a Schema, an invalid and small attempt, but an attempt none the less.
