I've just released XML-DBMS version 2.0, alpha 3. You can find this on
the XML-DBMS Web site:

   http://www.rpbourret.com/xmldbms/index.htm

The major new functionality in this release is a map generation tool
that can start with an XML-DBMS map, a DTD, or a database schema and
generate an XML-DBMS map, a DTD, or a set of CREATE TABLE statements.

Note that you do not need to be an XML-DBMS user to use this tool -- you
can use this tool to generate a database schema from a DTD and vice
versa. For complete details, see the description of the MapManager class
in the readme file.

XML-DBMS:
--------
XML-DBMS is a set of Java packages for transferring data between an XML
document and a relational database using an object-relational mapping.
It includes a flexible, XML-based mapping language for describing the
mappings.

New features in version 2.0 include heterogenous joins, a filter
language, updates and deletes (including insert-or-update semantics),
support for database-generated keys, connection and statement pooling,
custom formatting, and limited transformations in the mapping language.

XML-DBMS, version 1.0 is also available in PERL.
