XML model exchange format?

Trying out the 5.7 sample version, I was wondering if there is any notion of an XML model exchange format, DEVS, or perhaps along the lines of Tom Maxwell's old "MML", as per:

There did seem movement toward an XML exchange language XMILE, http://xmile.pbwiki.com, but nothing has happened.

Simile model specifications can be exported as in an XML format File menu -> Export -> XML model description. This has been used for the PlaSMo project http://www.plasmo.ed.ac.uk/.

Our idea is that once you have the specification in XML it is possible to transform it into another XML language.

hmmm - in the MAC OSX demo version, I get the following message trying to export to XML:

"Communication with a web service is required but cannot be established. Is there a connection to the internet?

The web access command returned the following exception: "invalid command name "::http::geturl""

Press "Help" to display a relevant page from Simile's documentation."

but there is a good deal to read through in the links you have sent....thanks!
