OK, so how would you archive the results of a national census? That's about as structured as you get. I would do it in XML.
There are really three issues implied in this question: archive and public and private access.
You might read three questions but I only wrote one. I asked about archive.
If one has to mix the concerns then XML is as good as anything. Personally, I'd rather separate them, generating XML for public access as needed.
You don't have to mix the concerns, and I didn't... I was asking about archive.
Personally, I'd want to know more about any application requirements before I'd say that XML alone would be sufficient.
The requirement for archiving a national census is to maximize the probability of being able to extract the information, without loss, and to minimize the cost of doing so, in say 100 years' time.
