I'm happy to report that today (2000/09/23) is xmlhack's one year
anniversary.
During this time we've run around 780 stories from the XML developer
community, on tools, debates, standards and other happenings in the XML
world. We've occasionally got ourselves in trouble, but more often than
not we've achieved our aim of promoting XML, particularly open-source
and community efforts.
In the past year we've also added new features to the site: the
incredibly useful site search and the XML jobs page. As of a few days ago, all the site
is now published in XML (it's pretty near XHTML, apart from the
banner-ad tags, so I can't claim full XHTML-validity).
I'd like to thank all our readers for their use of the site, and most
especially the contributors for their stories, advice and coding: Simon
St.Laurent, Eric van der Vlist, Leigh Dodds, Gabe Beged-Dov, Matt Hunt,
James Tauber and Ron Bourret.
