There are so many XML resources on the Web, I've had to categorize.
The first section here is the most useful, since the documents are either
high-level summaries or excellent link sites. Apologies to anyone who was
omitted.
XML and Java: General XML resources
-
"XML, Java and the Future of the Web." by Jon Bosak. The paper that started
it all, at least from a Java programmer's point of view. Definitely worth
a read, even if it's a bit dated. Jon is commonly considered to be the
father of XML. Funny how all of these technologies seem to have paternity

Upcoming XSL contest
Though the details aren't yet worked out, Sun Microsystems will soon announce
a call for proposals for a $30,000 grant to develop a client-side processor
for full XSL implementation in Mozilla. It will also announce, in
conjunction with Adobe, a contest (first prize $40,000, second prize $20,000)
to develop a pure-Java, server-side processor of the entire XSL language,
to format XML to PDF (Adobe's document format). Keep watching the Java
Developer Connection (requires free registration), and Mozilla sites for
the eventual announcements.
