JBoss Service Partnership Program in the works

Just heard the rumors that the JBoss Group might announce a service partnership program in the near future.
No official word yet. It is exciting to follow how the JBG grows its tentacles and strives among the dinosours in the IT services business.

XMLForm servlet toolkit

In response to a number of requests, the Apache Cocoon XMLForm module was extracted as a standalone toolkit.
It will offer an alternative solution for small to mid-size web application projects that do not require the full sophistication of Cocoon.
The project is hosted on SourceForge and may be submitted to the xml.apache.org incubator if there is enough interest.

Visit the project home page.

XQuery Sandbox - Error Handling

The XQuery Sandbox just got friendlier.
It now displays detailed compilation errors in the browser window instead of a blank page.

The official page of the QEXO project wchich powers this sandbox is
http://www.gnu.org/software/qexo/

Free XQuery Sandbox Live

As promised, the XQuery Sandbox is now humbly available for testing fully-functional XQuery scripts.
Please use cautiosly, since it is hosted on a relatively small web server.

A lot of work remains to be done to make the sandbox more user friendly.
At the moment compilation errors will result in blank page when the script is run.
As work progresses, this blog will be updated.

Click here or
the XQuery Hosting link on the left menu to enter the sandbox.

Enjoy!

XQuery - CocoonHive will soon host an XQuery sandbox

XQuery is a relatively new initiative by the W3C, which is gaining popularity
despite some initial contraversy and push back from XSLT supporters.

For a brief introduction, see this XML.com article by Per Bothner:
http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/10/16/xquery.html

I am actively working with Per on his Open Source Implementation - QEXO and will soon
launch a sandbox on this server. It will demonstrate XQuery's feasibility for building real world web applications easier and
faster than it used to be with previous technologies. It will also show how XQuery makes a terrific tool for orchestrating REST Web Services.
