I can no longer restrain myself.  This is the Blind Men and the Elephant.

At a nearby URL:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Generalized_Markup_Language

    Generalized Markup Language (GML) is a set of macros that
    implement intent-based markup tags for the IBM text formatter,
    SCRIPT/VS.

        ...

    GML preceded and was one of the two sources that were used as
    the basis for the industry-developed Standard Generalized
    Markup Language (SGML),

You're both right.  Sort of.  Now STFU.
