• Thread-topic: hierarchical XML in a relational DB structure - moving nodes

No Ken, he was an American as I recall doing business in the CALS world.
He and I discussed his techniques when he presented them at a conference
I was keynoting in the very early nineties.    If someone has access to
archives of TAG, it may be there somewhere.

Thanks for the reminder about the SQL sort order.  I ran into that too.
Indexing by mapping hierarchy to integer ids looked intuitively simple
but proved to be anything but.   I think the tumbler idea is a bit
better and more amenable to string wrangling.

We discussed Hans Schouten's work in this thread. Is he the person?
