Ah, great... another thread about "XML vs. EDI".... and we'll get a plethora of replies - some touting the benefits of XML and how EDI is an ancient and complex concept that needs to be done away with and others rallying around the venerable and valid old way....
On a serious note, this does show that XML is not any better than EDI - just a different way to do the same thing - send data between trading partners. It's just another way to package the data and get it sent. Big deal. EDI is not dead, XML is not the newer and better way of doing things... it's the same stuff, different box... But... can't we get different "vs" posts and threads...? Maybe "Godzilla vs. Mothra" "Freddy vs. Jason" "Rocky vs. Bullwinkle" "Army vs. Navy" "USC vs. UCLA" "Cal vs. Stanford" "East vs. West" "Batman vs. Riddler" and any other "vs" comparisons...? They'd probably be more interesting... Happy Friday for all...
