Concerning Java benefiting from anything, I hope not. Since Java is an inferior technology, whose acceptance is based on marketing and consumer gullibility, I do not believe that the Ada community has any responsibility to perform actions that benefit Java's commercial sponsors. -----Original Message----- From: comp.lang.ada-admin@ada.eu.org [mailto:comp.lang.ada-admin@ada.eu.org] On Behalf Of Pascal Obry Sent: Saturday, June 01, 2002 11:53 PM To: comp.lang.ada@ada.eu.org Subject: Re: XML and Ada was RE: A standard package for config files is needed Ok I see, what you say is that XML is great (I agree), that it is very close to Ada in syntax and part of the semantic (I agree)... but XML and Ada are completly different beasts in usage and Java can benefit from XML as much as Ada can in my point of view.
