> So this does mean that the Fix5.0 SP2 specification is same as FIXML. It is better to think of this the other-way-around. The FIX specification (eg 4.2, 4.4, 5.0, 5.0SP2, etc) defines the capabilities and rules of the FIX Protocol. The FIX Protocol supports two syntaxes: (classic) tag=value and FIXML. Thus, anything that can be represented in tag=value can be represented (albeit differently) in FIXML, and vice-versa.
