And the current version (v5) will still include SGML and DTD support for
free, and most of the benefits of the new v6 are supposedly related to
well-formed XML.
Now my question is, when they made the announcement, why couldn't Omnimark
have phrased it as clearly as Rick just did? I think it would have caused a
lot less grief, headaches, and flinging of profanities if they had done so.
[hope I don't get this list shut down by criticizing Omnimark's customer
relations strategy! ;)]
