Thank you, that reallly helps.
Mulberry is offering a tutorial on it at the 2005
Extreme Markup Languages
conference.
I don't know anything about Extreme Markup. What's it
like? Who goes to it?
It's basically a way to try to deal with legacy
(non-XML) data in such a
way that XML-based systems can make sense of it. To
do that, separate
files in the DFDL format describe the legacy content.
Put differently,
it's a way to add metadata about legacy data that
XML-based systems can
use to interact with the legacy data. If you have a
mix of XML and non-XML
data, it makes sense, yes.
Again, thank you. This may be just what I'm looking
for. Is it widely supported?
And can you say Daffodil? :D
OH. I didn't think of that. Of course.
Thank you again.
