Kevin, I was toying with Berkeley DBXML in our link resolver project (I gave up in favor for Ferret: Ruby's port of Lucene), but am strongly considering it for both an EAD project we have here, as well as a replacement for our Zebra mirror of our OPAC (both of these coupled with Ferret/Lucene for fulltext indexing).
In the link resolver, I was using XQuery (although I'm not sure what you mean by 'primary development language') and would probably be using it again on the other projects. -Ross. On 8/16/06, Kevin S. Clarke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi all, I'm curious in finding out how many libraries out there are using or experimenting with native xml databases. If you are, would you mind dropping me an email offlist saying you are and how you are using it? I'm not aware of any sites yet where libraries are sharing their code for these types of databases. Which leads me to my second question... I'm also interested in learning of libraries who are using XQuery as a primary development language. Since the xmldb api is ancient (and not supported by all native xml databases), xquery seems like the most logical way to interact with a native xml database. If you are using xquery with a relational database or a file system I'd also be interested in hearing from you too. Thanks, Kevin
