Rory chimes in on some people saying that XAML should go... Of course, if I said something like "Just because you don't like the fact that Microsoft created a new markup language, you want to rip it out and replace it with something else. Did you stop for even a moment to consider what a monumental task that would be? Why don't you just ask for someone to repaint the Empire State Building? Or have it moved a block over? Or transported to Sweden?" people would just assume that I'm lazy and don't want to do the work...
