The following has, I think, an error (XML came after HTML, no?): "HTML was originally designed based on XML tagging but without SGML's emphasis on rigorous markup." Probably should read: "HTML was originally designed based on SGML tagging but without SGML's emphasis on rigorous markup." MarkVolundNYC 17:43, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

As Docbook is (rightly) mentioned, shouldn't DSSSL also be? (MonstaPro 15:41, 2 April 2007 (UTC))[reply]


Unclear: so does the GML of SGML stand for Goldfarb, Mosher and Lorie or Generalized Markup Language? If it is both that should be mentioned, if its the first it should be cited.
