PDOM, persistent DOM with XQL

[Marcel Ruff <ruff at swand.lake.de>]

Here is what i found in a mailing list:

-------------
In our PDOM (free download at http://xml.darmstadt.gmd.de/xql) an XML 
file is compiled to a binary random access file. On top of this is a 
live-object manager that transparently translates DOM operations into 
updates of the binary file. Thus: no in memory DOM, but a persistent 
filebased DOM. No need to serialize, its serialized all the time.

        ++im

P.S. There is a paper on this (done for OOPSLA'99) which I can send 
on request.
-------------

perhaps we should change our XmlKey DOM to PDOM, and XPath to XQL??
