Who still uses #XML on the web?

• #RSS and Atom: news, blog, and other updates
• International Aid Transparency Initiative (#IATI): aid spending and budgets
• #EDGAR: U.S. public corporate filings
• Scalable Vector Graphics (#SVG) files
• the well-formed flavour of #HTML5
• etc etc

(I left out stuff in zipfiles like Word and Excel.)

Old #standards never die; they just become boring critical infrastructure.
