I've gently started to think about the manual and how they could have (IMO) a
better organization. Before cutting/pasting from the old manuals, I would like
your feedback.
I think that the Administrator Guide is going to be merged with the User Guide:
- There is no server and CORBA anymore
- Collection management also concerns the user
- what's left are the indexes and the backup of data -> easily merged into the
user guide
Proposition:
- Getting Started document (merge admin+user guides)
* Introduction to XML Databases
o What Is an XML Database
o Apache Xindice
* Database Administration
o Create the Database
o Import and Export
o Working with indices
* Working with Collections
* Working with Documents
* Querying Documents
o Introduction to XPath
* Updating Documents
o Introduction to XUpdate
- Database programming (formely Developer guide)
* Introduction
* XML-PRC Programming
o What Is XML-RPC?
o Message Definition
* Embedding Xindice
o What Is the XML:DB API?
Thoughts?
