Will JSON replace XML, especially in the area of messaging because it is more compact?

Otherwise, will XML survive due to the related abilities of schema based validation and translation/teansformation?

XML is useful in other applications, for examples to define layouts of app designs, keeping datasets of books in a library, readily available to display processed data by XSLT. XML and XSLT are more advanced then HTML/CSS, which been widely used in many applications.

XML and JSON can be used differently. Sometimes XML cannot be used and sometimes the opposite. I summarize my point that JSON cannot replace XML since both are used in different places.
