BaseX is actively developed (6.0 came out about two weeks ago), but I
understand your concern. It seems like they are moving towards building more
of a community around it (mailing lists and such), but yes, the core is pretty

Godmar,
We're using eXist for a couple of apps here, and like it quite a bit.
The full text search extensions in the 1.4 release are backed by Lucene,
and it's pretty quick once you've tuned it (try some searches here:

Hi,
we're currently looking for an XML database to store a variety of
small-to-medium sized XML documents. The XML documents are
unstructured in the sense that they do not follow a schema or DTD, and
that their structure will be changing over time. We'll need to do
efficient searching based on ele
