Last december Phillip Eby (PJE) posted a a nice rant. It was
widely quoted in other Python-oriented weblogs; people liked
especially the rant against XML. It was indeed a very nice rant. It still
rankled a bit with me, though, even though I've seen similar things before. This
disdain for XML technologies is very common among Python
programmers. I posted my own rant in response in a comment on
another weblog, hardly a place where it will be seen. So, I'll post a
new, edited version of my rant in my shiny new weblog, where it has at least
a bit more chance to be read. What's the good of ranting if nobody hears you, after all?
