Re: XML was RPG Standards?

["James W. Kilgore" <qappdsn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mr. Rooney,

No.

But many sites are monitoring the progression, to jump in, at their perceived
point of XML maturity.

Geez, that sounds like some of the IBM rags I've read lately ;-}  If the wave is
built, someone is bound to ride it.

In spite of the futile past efforts,  IBM may blunder upon the "AT" standard for
the new millennium.

Taking into account the size of customer base, and lack of competition, IBM's
view of XML and push on "e" anything may very well become the future of EDI.

Personally, we keep an eye on XML, with a grain of SAA salt.

Happy Holidays and a quiescent New Year
James W. Kilgore
