What is the fundamental difference between ZConfig and ZCML apart from
the esthetic appearance that everyone seems to be so concerned with? I
see that all the attributes in the ZCML format are presented as elements
in the ZConfig format.
what does this imply *semantically* to put the information in attributes
as opposed to put it in elements?
maybe a better balance is needed between full-fledge attribute-based
design (ZCML) and full-fledge element-based design (ZConfig).
there is an article about the element vs attribute distinction that
might be worth reading.
