    Well, I've been pronouncing it: ex-ak-mul
    
    no accounting for taste, but I've always regarded the "X" as an extension
    and not part of the name :-)

    a pronunciation question:
    
    XACML:  ex-zak-mul  or  zak-mul ?
    
    As a hint, ask yourself how you really pronounce XEROX. (and yes I suppose
    I'm
    leaving myself open to some flamage from
    non-native-ahmurkan-english-speakers)

    ps: a co-worker of mine at xerox pronounced "xerox" quite clearly as
    "zee-rocks". I seem to recall he was speaking a southeasternUS dialect of
    american english.
