I dunno, Rick - it seems to me that JSON proves that the SML people had a point in the first place, and that the YAML people who followed them had an even better point.
I don't care much whether it's angle brackets or curly braces. I'm just happy that people who just want to ship data structures around have found a home more appropriate to them than XML ever really could be.
(And with luck, JSON's success will lead more people to YAML, and eventually we'll have people working in toolsets that were actually designed for their tasks instead of repurposed from another field.)
