Single answer to question a-d: Currently I'm writing my Diploma thesis about the use of xml databases and cms. I'm using Xindice together with a well known CMS (at least in Germany :-)). The CMS is written in Perl and I'm connecting both systems with the Frontier::RPC module. And I have to say it works great. The same CMS also has an api for Tamino, but the performance with Xindice is better! Unfortenately I can't say anything about stability, because I just started the whole thing. > > E) Can XINDICE run as a Windows service ? There is a complete Xindice-Installer(http://www.thatwaltguy.com/xinstaller/), which uses the Tomcat Service Manager! So it can! > Thanks for your help ! > > Klemens Daniel
