There's a great rant in what looked like a great talk from rock stars Don and Chris, which Ben transcribed:
“It turns out a lot of the headache people have with Web Services or WS-* is tied to XSD. XSD is more flawed than most technologies that roam the earth. I was on the committee that created it, and that was back when I made my money explaining complicated technologies to people for money, and man, I could hear the cash registers ringing in my ears.â€
“Now my job is making things simple, which is unfortunate since I’m stuck with XSD.â€
“XSD was a standard-committee driven piece of ####ing crap.â€
Amen, and thanks to the likes of you we're saddled with the horror of schema. Instead of just moaning, maybe you could put some bums on seats over here.
