    103   ''Well, but Markup '''is''' mostly about Markup, just not exclusively. So we'd have to use something like XAJM (XAJM Ain't Just Markup) :-P[[BR]] -- cmlenz''

     104Well, the ''Not'' in X__N__M has to be interpreted in the same spirit as the ''Not'' in G__N__U: ''Not'' xyz but mostly about xyz anyway... [[br]]

     107By the way, exploring the '''X'''YX line, I came up with:
     108
     109== “XSTL” ==
     110
     111Which would stand for '''e__X__tensible __S__tream-based __T__emplate __L__anguage''', which seems to describe Markup quite accurately.
     112The name is of course close to ''XSLT'', and that's fine because Markup is conceptually close to XSLT, only that it does things in the ''correct order'' (data → transform → xml, as opposed to data → xml → transform → xml). Plus, there's the connection introduced by XPath, used by both.
     113Finally, imagine the number of people who would stumble upon Markup by mistyping xslt ;)
