			<outline text="Radio UserLanders, is that they're so &lt;a href=&quot;http://radiodiscuss.userland.com/discuss/msgReader$1869&quot;&gt;enthusiastic!&lt;/a&gt;"/>

		<outline text="W3C XML Protocol activity">
			<outline text="This morning I received an email from Tim Berners-Lee saying that the W3C will begin a new activity called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.w3.org/2000/09/XML-Protocol-Charter.html&quot;&gt;XML Protocol&lt;/a&gt;. UserLand participated, along with 44 companies in defining the charter for this working group. "/>
			<outline text="The process leading to the XML Protocol activity at the W3C was confidential. There came a point in the discussion where each participating company had to express their opinion re the formation of the working group. That came on August 18. I can only share my own opinion with you. This is what I &lt;a href=&quot;http://scriptingnews.userland.com/stories/storyReader$938&quot;&gt;said&lt;/a&gt;."/>
			<outline text="There are a lot of conclusions to draw today and probably in the coming weeks. For the next 1.5 years the W3C will be working in this area. In the meantime, we have two widely-deployed specifications for XML-based distributed computing, XML-RPC and SOAP. I have no doubt that this technology is relevant, and the W3C charter explains why."/>
			<outline text="&lt;i&gt;The Web can grow significantly in power and scope if it is extended to support communication between applications, from one program to another. The purpose of this Working Group is to create a simple foundation to support the needs of such communicating applications.&lt;/i&gt;"/>
			<outline text="That gets a 100-percent right on from Dave. As the process continues, I've come to appreciate the way the W3C works and am more and more impressed with the mind of TBL. "/>
			<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://discuss.userland.com/msgReader$21314&quot;&gt;William Crimm expresses&lt;/a&gt; confusion about the charter of the working group, and I shed &lt;a href=&quot;http://discuss.userland.com/msgReader$21316&quot;&gt;whatever light&lt;/a&gt; I can. I'm a total newbie here. Learning as I go."/>

I like the timing on this. Assuming we can get to beta in the next few weeks, there should be a lot of Mac users wondering what's next. "/>

			<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nme.com/newsdesk/20000914183036.html&quot;&gt;NME&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;Fearing that petrol blockades may leave record stores short of copies in the post-Mercury sales rush, XL has made 'The Hour Of Bewilderbeast' available as a download. From Wednesday (20 September), the album will be available on www.badlydrawnboy.co.uk for the cost of £9.99. It will be available in the Windows Media and Liquid Audio formats.&quot;"/>

It is not true. This article shows open source projects are about as far as you can get from self-organizing. In fact, these projects use strong central control, which is crucial to their success. &quot;"/>
			<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://scriptingnews.userland.com/stories/storyReader$937&quot;&gt;Yesterday&lt;/a&gt; I received an email from Tim O'Reilly, once again interfering with what I say here on Scripting News, in DaveNet, and on public mail lists."/>
			<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.usatoday.com/money/columns/maney.htm&quot;&gt;USA Today&lt;/a&gt;: &quot;Of course, there is one potential solution. We could hand the whole XML movement over to Microsoft. It could then bulldoze the babble, set its own standard and force everyone else to conform. Then Microsoft would become as dominant on the Web as it now is on the PC.&quot;"/>
