If you haven't heard of XML yet, you must be living under a rock! - Programming in the .NET Environment Taken from the fortunes file. I guess I must be living under a rock, but I don't know what xml is, or pragmatically, what is it for. Please, understand that I'm not trying to start a flame war in here, but I'd really appreciate if someone could explain xml to me. I've read the wikipedia entry but doesn't help me a lot, and for the first time in my life I saw some xml code today, in a program that I need to use and, hopefully, understand. I know this subject isn't plan 9 related, but 9fans is my best resource for CS questions.
