What is the good XML editor?

[nguyenUSA]

I heard that there are good XML WYSIWYG editors such as Adobe
FrameMaker, Visual XML. Have any one used them yet and how good are
they? Is there any other good program out there in the market? I
don't know whether Dreamweaver MX is feasible to write XML. Thank you
for your suggestion.

Personally, I've been a big fan of PSGML's sgml-mode and xml-mode
under emacs for a while, and lately I'm moving over to James Clark's
nxml-mode. But if you are wedded to the WYSIWYG concept, I have been
trying out Syntext's Serna editor. It uses XSLT to render to a
screen-displayable subset of XSL-FO on the fly. I have not given it a
thorough testing, but I have liked what I have seen.
