Moving to storing information in Jackrabbit means a binary format; not a
closed one of course, but still ... is this a concern ? (Or is it just
me ;
I don't understand why jackrabbit == binary. JSR-170 just specifies an
interface, and says "It should not be tied to any particular underlying
architecture, data source or protocol."
Looks like you can store whatever the underlying store can support -
text, xml, images, mp3 if you want. And get it back by id or xpath.
Spec Section 4:
"In the diagram above, we see the single root node of some workspace
with child nodes a, b and c, each of which have further child nodes or
properties. For example, the node a has two child nodes, d and e. Node
e, in turn, has two properties, j and k. The property j contains an
image (a picture of a rabbit) and k contains a floating-point number
(6.022 × 1023). Similarly, the property i contains a boolean value
(true), the property g contains a string ( Once upon a time... ) and the
property h contains an integer (- 25)."
