Response to: Why imbed images in XML documents?
That's ok for documents on the web. But, for instance, if you create a document with your word prcessor and send it via email, you neither want to put all its images on a HTTP server nor do you want to send 20 files in the mail. Thus you need either to include the images in the XML directly, or some kind of standardized archive that contains the files (effectively MIME structures and DIME are both archives).
