Where does XML come from?

Introduction. Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a simple, very flexible text format derived from SGML (ISO 8879). Originally designed to meet the challenges of large-scale electronic publishing, XML is also playing an increasingly important role in the exchange of a wide variety of data on the Web and elsewhere.

How old is XML?

Though it’s hard to believe that it has already been five years, the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) published XML 1.0 as a Recommendation on February 10, 1998, making XML five years old today.
