Re^3: OT: xml format question

If I were to choose, I wouldn't choose XML at all.

JSON seems much nicer and less verbose to me, and it has far less choices like encoding, entities, comments and references to external things.

It lacks schema definitions and tooling though.

Sure, but there is no JSONSpy, like there is XmlSpy, and other programs prefer to output/consume XML and don't know what JSON would even be.	[reply]
