> <i>I'm the CEO of Mark Logic Corporation, a company which develops and markets an XML server.</i><p>Reminds me of a local company that was developing something similar, an "XML acceleration appliance" or something like that. The most notable fact about that company was that every single employee had a different version of what their product was actually doing. It was really bizarre. They had substantial funding, they had a brand, they were marketing the product and even managed to sell it, but every time they tried to explain the technical side of things it came out trivial. Don't know if they are still in business, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are.
