I was thinking the same.

Hm, and those DBMSes that claim to "support the XML" have the ability
to give you such .xml file out-of-the-box ?

I would really like to see how someone would extract xml from you
example with M$SQL or DB/2. If they can really do it, it would be
interesting to see what they require as input. Perhaps some kind of
template?

I guess Bruce will have some answers on this?
