Art,
Okay. MARC was a predecessor, similar in using tags.
Those references you cited seem to be more concerned
with international character sets than differences
in structure.

It occurs to me that it should be SO easy to go from
XML to a so-called 'normal form' for a database, that
any old, pure database package might be able to read
XML files.  It may be 20 years since I touched one of those.
But that could be another place to look for conversion
for tagged data.
