[Announce] Apache Xindice XML Database 1.0

Apache Xindice XML database 1.0 Released
----------------------------------------

The Apache Xindice team is pleased to announce the release of Apache 
Xindice
1.0. This is the first production release of the Apache Xindice database.
Full source code is available under the terms of the Apache Software 
License
and downloads are available from http://xml.apache.org/xindice

Apache Xindice is a native XML database. As such it has basically one 
purpose,
easy management of XML data. It is not intended as a competitor for 
relational
databases or object databases. Xindice is primarily targeted at new 
application
development where XML has already been determined to play a critical role.
  If
you find your self asking the question, "why should I convert my existing
applications to use Xindice?", then you're probably asking the wrong 
question.
Of course, if those existing applications make extensive use of XML, it 
might
be worth exploring.

The server is currently suitable for medium volume XML storage 
applications. It
supports XPath for queries and XML:DB XUpdate for XML updates. An

[Announcement] Apache Cocoon 2.0.2 Release

Apache Cocoon 2.0.2 Released
----------------------------

   The Apache Cocoon team is proud to announce the new release
   of Apache Cocoon.

    Apache Cocoon is an XML framework that raises the usage of
    XML and XSLT technologies for server applications to a new level.
    Designed for performance and scalability around pipelined SAX
    processing, Cocoon offers a flexible environment based on the
    separation of concerns between content, logic and style.
    A centralized configuration system and sophisticated caching
    top this all off and help you to create, deploy and maintain
    rock-solid XML server applications.

    Today, most web engineers consider XML as the key for an improved
    web model and web site managers see XML as a way to reduce costs
    and ease production. In an era where services rather than software
    will be key for economic success, a better and less expensive model
    for web publishing will be a winner, especially one based on open
    standards.

    This release of Cocoon is a maintainance release focusing on
    improved performance and robustness. In addition some bugs were
    fixed and new features were added. See the following changes list
    for more information.
