[basex-announce] BaseX 9.6.1: Patch release

Hi again,

A new BaseX patch release is available, which resolves a GUI icon bug and includes minor new XQuery tweaks:

https://basex.org/

Next, due to privacy concerns, we have disabled the automatic GUI update check at startup time. You can manually re-enable it by choosing:

1. Help » Check for Updates 2. Do you want to have automatic checks for updates? » Yes

For those who are interested in what’s going on: The URL https://files.basex.org/version.txt is called via a standard HttpURLConnection instance [1]; no additional user-specific data will (and has ever) be sent to our server.

Have fun, and thanks for your support, Christian
