This post contains the first of three screen-casts that introduces DocumentBuilder 2.0, talks about interrelated markup, and explores how DocumentBuilder solves developer issues with regards to interrelated markup. While this screen-cast is a bit long (20 minutes), it will be important for developers using DocumentBuilder who want to know how DocumentBuilder works. (Video)
