1. Is XML a new literacy for the electronic documents publishing? Oleh Volokhin LIS450NL November 2001

2. XML is a meta-markup language. It’s a language in which we can make up the tags we need. These tags mast be organized according to certain general principles, but they are quite flexible in their meaning. XML enables individuals professions (e.g. music, chemistry, mathematics) to develop their own field-specific markup-languages. XML supports (as SGML) DTD files (Document Type Definition files). We can think of a DTD as a vocabulary and a syntax for certain kinds of XML documents and every new DTD creates a new sub language based on XML.
