title: Is there still a place for XML in the future?
body: <p>Now that many people seem to be moving towards JSON for web communication I am wondering about why XML should continue to be used.</p>
  
  <p>I appreciate that XML has many years on JSON, during which time it has been widely adopted. However, the fact that it is so well-adopted appears to be the one decisive reason why it should continue to be used.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a good reason why XML should not gradually be phased out in favour of JSON?</p>
