Take out the namespaces, external entities, CDATA, and other cruft, and XML isnt tooo bad.



Yeah but then you've ended up with weird JSON.


Weird JSON with schemas. To me, that sounds like a pretty good trade. I know there's a bunch of json-schema things, but none of them have the weight of a primary-source officially blessed schema system.


People that dislike XML and like JSON are... weird. JSON is a verbose mess.
