Seriously, there were just too many important XML happenings for any one story to be designated the most important. Several significant W3C recommendations took place during the year 2000: XSL, DOM L2 and MathML, to name a few. During 2001, we anticipate the proposal and adoption of additional XML-related standards, but more importantly, the mounting acceptance and success of XML-based solutions in large e-commerce applications.
