Re: [xml-dev] Lessons from the RSS Civil War: The Circle Of Life
Gerald, please notice the pattern of naming:
C -> C++ -> Java -> C#
By choosing new names for new things, it is possible to talk
meaningfully about the difference between C# and C rather than
"Microsoft C" and "Sun C" and "AT&T C" which has a totally different
connotation.
I don't think anybody minds Luxor building on XUL or even keeping the
XUL name for the parts that are compatible with traditional XUL. The
flamewar is when XUL is applied to random XML technologies that happen
to have something to do with user interfaces.
