This we define as a group of defined formats that support scientific data, note taking and sketches
XSIL (Scientific data Interchange) defines metadata needed to specify scientific data files including high level parameters and methods needed to read data
VML is Vector Graphics Mark up Language
DrawML is designed to support simple technical drawings (easier than VML but VML should be able to do this?)
VRML (3D scenes) re-implemented in XML as X3D (http://www.vrml.org/news/pr990210-content.html)
MathML Mathematical Expressions
CML Support Chemistry -- not clear if adopted widely
