XML is evil…EVIL!!!!!!! Apparently.

I sat and listened to Neal Ford this morning at TSSJS talk about the problem of increasing complexity in Java frameworks and using Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) to help the situation.  While I found his talk informative and entertaining, it wouldn’t be a Neal Ford talk without the usual jabs at XML.  Is XML really all that evil?  I mean, honestly now.  Am I the only person who thinks XML isn’t really all THAT bad?  Do you even care?  No?  Well, fine then.  Be that way.
