    improvements

4Suite is a collection of Python tools for XML processing and object
database management.  It provides support for XML parsing, several
transient and persistent DOM implementations, XPath expressions,
XPointer, XSLT transforms, XLink, RDF and ODMG object databases.

4Suite Server is a platform for XML processing.  It features an XML data
repository, metadata management, a rules-based engine, XSLT transforms,
XPath and RDF-based indexing and query, XLink resolution and many other
XML services.  It also provides transactions and access control features.
Along with basic console and command-line management, it supports remote,
cross-platform and cross-language access through CORBA, WebDAV,
HTTP and other request protocols.

4Suite Server is not meant to be a full-blown application server.  It
provides highly-specialized services for XML processing that can be used
with other application servers.

All the software is open-source and free to download.  Priority support
and customization is available from Fourthought, Inc.  For more
