Which is better xml design for a pure data payload (not textual content)?

    <foo>something</foo>
Or

    <foo value="something"/>
When you get back with a coherent universal argument, we'll revisit the json vs xml question.

Isn't this very easy ? Short, Succinct and a Simple No-frills string ? Put it in the attribute. Big, Long and Arbitrary Length Data ? Put it in the content of the element. Now gimme money.

If these are the sort of questions that are tripping you up, just use <foo>something</foo> for everything.
