[R] PMML- Predictive model markup language

[John Aitchison]

Hi all, 

I caught a passing reference to PMML on the WEKA list (I think) .. an XML 
way of communicating 'data mining models'.  I am of the opinion that XML 
is a 'good thing' and I would for instance like to see a standard XML way 
of communicating the content and context of datasets (eg of timeseries) 
but it has been a long day and my internet connection is slow and so I 
have not worked through the slideshow at
http://www.dmg.org/
but wonder if anyone else has examined PMML and can give an opinion as to 
whether this (PMML) is worthwhile opening up as a discussion thread.

If not, I will look at it in a day or so when I can get some energy and 
time and report back.

thanks

John Aitchison
