What do we call the new Xml programming API that ships with Linq?

posted Sunday, July 23, 2006 12:11 AM
Soma recently announced the name changing of several Linq related technologies.  As part of the renaming effort XLinq became Linq to Xml.  Although Linq to Xml makes sense as a name for a chunk of the Xml related functionality within Linq it doesn’t fit for everything.  The new lightweight Xml programming API can be used outside the context of Linq and has been left nameless.  Perhaps we should keep calling the Xml Programming API XLinq, and only use Linq to Xml when we’re talking specifically about querying Xml using language integrated query?
