G3C announces: GML, Gopher and XHTML

[Christoph Lohmann <20h@r-36.net>]

Greetings comrades.

The G3C, headquartered at Bitreich, has an announcement to make:


Gopher and XHTML merge.

In  an effort  by looking  at the  gemini protocol,  we at  the G3C are
working  on improving  user experience.  We hope  to solve  this gap  of
markup  and extensibility  by using  XHTML in  gopher menus,  the Gopher
Markup Language – GML:

	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
	<!DOCTYPE gml PUBLIC "-//G3C//DTD GML 1.0 STRICT//EN"
	   "gopher://g3c.org/0/gml.dtd";>
	<gml>
		<hole>
			<title>Bitreich.org</title>
		</hole>
		<menu>
			<item type="0"
			    href="gopher://bitreich.org/0/hacker-manifesto.txt";
			    icon="::second-coming:daytime=morning::">
				Read the Bitreich Manifesto.
			</item>
			<item type="1"
			    href="gopher://bitreich.org/1/bithub";
			    icon="::long-dick:skin-tone=3,circumcised=no::">
				Watch Porn and be happy.
			</item>
		</menu>
	</gml>
		
The icons are using the new smiley standard we are working on at G3C.

We hope to have all gopher clients supporting this standard by the end of
2021 and so going into a brighter future!

Happy Easter to Everyone!
