Dear all, BaseX 8.6 is out! The new version of our XML database system and XQuery 3.1 processor includes countless improvements and optimizations.

The most prominent new features are: LOCKING - jobs without database access will never be locked - read transactions are now favored (adjustable via FAIRLOCK) RESTXQ - file monitoring was improved (adjustable via PARSERESTXQ) - authentication was reintroduced (no passwords anymore in web.xml) - id session attributes will show up in log data DBA - always accessible, even if job queue is full - pagination of table results INDEXING - path index improved: distinct values storage for numeric types XQUERY - aligned with latest version of XQuery 3.1 - updated functions: map:find, map:merge, fn:sort, array:sort, ... - enhancements in User, Process, Jobs, REST and Database Module CSV DATA - improved import/export compatibility with Excel data Visit http://basex.org to find the latest release, and check out http://docs.basex.org/ to get more information.

04 Jan '17

Dear all, This year, there will be no BaseX Preconference Meeting in XML Prague. Sorry for that! The reason is simple: We were too busy in order to prepare ourselves for the event, look for speakers, etc. At least we are happy to announce that BaseX 8.6 will finally be released this month. Stay tuned! All the best, Christian
