        The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a subset of SGML that is completely described in this document. Its goal is to
        enable generic SGML to be served, received, and processed on the Web in the way that is now possible with HTML. XML
        has been designed for ease of implementation and for interoperability with both SGML and HTML. For further information
        read normal.pdf. XML has associated with it a great number of other standards, most of them under W3C (World-Wide
    Web Consortium) auspices. Among these are XML Namespaces, XML Pointer, XPath, XSLT, XHTML, SVG, RELAX, SOAP, and any
    number of others. This file has been prepared using formatting objects, an XML vocabulary described in the XSL
    specification of October 18, 2000. Formatting objects are used to specify pagination and composition, and are
    intended for high-quality, precision layout-driven formatting.
