Subject: ANN: XMOP Open Source

XML MetaData Object Persistence (XMOP) is now available in beta form at:

http://jabr.ne.mediaone.net/xmop/signup.htm.

Documentation is available at:

http://jabr.ne.mediaone.net/documents/xmop.htm.

The XMOP DTD:

http://jabr.ne.mediaone.net/documents/xmop.dtd.

XMOP, in final form, will be freely available open source. For development purposes there are no redistribution rights associated with the beta. Please send me any suggestions and/or modifications for inclusion in the final open source version. The Java side of XMOP is being released now. I haven't had sufficient time to get the C++ version code ready for public view :-) Part of the issue regards the XML parser. At the time it was written, XMOP used MSXML IE4. This is not DOM compliant and I haven't had the time to update things to IE5 which is DOM compliant. The other issue regards my use of class libraries which I can't release as open source at the moment (I have to extract releasable code from the libraries). The Java version uses IBM XML4J and JDK 1.1.6+. This can be obtained from alphaworks.ibm.com.

My apologies for the delay, it's just been a packaging issue. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
