XML successes and failures

I recently gave an evening conference for SAI on 11 years of XML: its successes and its failures.
These were the slides used:Download file "SAIXML.pdf".

I was pleasantly surprised that this talk attracked so many attendees: almost 60, being a full house.
This really was beyond expectation, since I had the impression that XML has become a commodity, playing in the same league as ASCII and CSV, causing not much of an excitement anymore.
My guess is now that there were so many people due to experienced or perceived frustrations with XML.

What do you think?
