The IETF general list may not be the best venue for advocacy pieces written

in my opinion detract from or confuse a reading of your disrupt-the-web
advocacy.
It seemed to fit in well enough with some of the WAP discussions here, but
okay.
Serious pieces are welcome, there are people here on a number of other lists
which are XML-specific or XML-related, but content is more engaging than
glosses.
I didn't think anyone would appreciate my republishing the article here,
and it seemed that some cross-pollination between the XML community and the
IETF might be worthwhile on these issues.
Sorry for the, er, disruption.
