It's a good subject for discussion, but off-topic for this newsgroup, 
which is specifically about using XML in Mozilla, not XML's merits or 
demerits generally.

For the info you seek, see Tim Bray's summary of the pros and cons of 
XML <http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2003/03/24/XMLisOK>. 
Afterwards, for discussion of this topic, try a group like comp.text.xml 
<http://groups.google.com/group/comp.text.xml>.
