I think it is an abuse of XML... nothing is actually marked up.
Everything seems to be given as attributes, i.e.:
<field name="verhlen" pos="15" show="45" showname="Version and header Length" size="1"
value="45">
rather than:
<field name="verhlen" pos="15" show="45" showname="Version and header Length"
size="1">0x45</field>
It does use the container mechanism to do sub-structure, but I'm not
convinced that I like it this.
It is worth looking at.
How widespread is PDML?
