Re: What is XAML? A technique? A language? Both? XML# or XML++?

Hello,

   For a different perspective on  "What is XAML?" allow me to quote
from the "About XAML" page from the XAML pioneer Mobiform. Here we go:

   XAML (pronounced `ZAML') is an XML based vector markup
specification produced by Microsoft. XAML is one of the primary
pillars in the next version of Windows (Windows 2006). If you are
familiar with W3C standards, XAML is like HTML, XForms and SVG in one
specification.

   XAML has all of the capabilities of HTML, Flash and PDF combined in
a single XML based markup language. XAML uses .NET as its code behind
technology. In addition XAML will deliver the 3D internet experience
to web users with the XAML 3D capabilities.
