Hi everyone,

we are glad to announce a great new release of BaseX, our XML database and XPath/XQuery 3.0 processor! Here are the latest features;

- The full-text fuzzy index was extended to also support wildcard queries: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Full-Text

- The simple map operator of XQuery 3.0 gives you a compact syntax to process items of sequences: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/XQuery_3.0

- BaseX as Web Application can now start its own server instance: http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Web_Application
