DN: I have to disagree with this. I've worked in the commercial software
industry since XML was a recommendation in 1998 and have worked on
numerous solutions around B2B. The most widely used XML parsers are
FOSS. Xerces, JDOM et al for Java are driving most large businesses XML
parsing requirements. Almost every language has good XML capabilities. (03)
The main cost of XML interchange is mapping the instance data to the
business services based on its' semantics. (04)
