Bob,
Where did you get that information? It's true that Oracle was involved in using XML fairly early on along with IBM and Microsoft. Sun, on the other hand, didn't really do much with it until a little over a year ago when they announced that they were going to tack it on the side of Java, but not, in my perception, as a first class citizen. By that time, a number of third parties had already been using XML with Java, and Sun either needed to grab control of it or risk losing that control to some other XML savvy leader. Just my firsthand observation (JMFO).
