Thanks Craeg. In order to have a full XML:DB support, though, there is still
some work to do: since an XML:DB compliant database can be seen (roughly) as
a "xpath-enabled" filesystem where directories are called Collections ans
files are called Resources, it might make sense to write something like the
DirectoryGenerator in order to query Collections and single documents. I
plan to write such thing during this week. Another interesting work might be
to add support for xpath directly inside the generators: this too can be
easily done.
Further on there might be a simple XSP logicsheet to allow interaction with
the DB (adding/removing collection and resources). This can be interesting
if coupled with XUpdate, which is supported by dbXML, yet it might take some
more time to me, given that I have almost no experience with XSP: I have
though some basic X:Forge components that might be easily refactored into
logicsheets. I'll see what I can do.
