[edit] Discussion

Haml is a alternative more legible non-XHTML syntax. It is "reversible" in the sense of XSugar?

It is a very interesting language, the Haml's scripts seem more like a "programmable RELAX Compact_syntax" than a tradictional Web template (see formal defs.). What the relationship with Haml and schema specifications (that is not a explicit "core principle")?

Haml was designed as a web templating engine and does fit with the rules of one; although HTML isn't valid input like it is for PHP and eRuby, it does fit with all the necessities in the formal definition. Haml isn't really a schema language like RELAX NG or XML Schemas... rather than defining types of XML documents, it defines the documents themselves. Is that what you were asking?
