Hi there,
we are currently investigating options for using XML database as a backend in a publishing project related to technical documentation - DITA in particular. The broad customer requirements are checkin and checkout of documents, locking of documents and versioning. Has anyone worked with an XML database in similar scenarios? Any pointers?

Hi Andreas,
I don’t think there are many out of the box solutions to this, despite document-level locking in our webdav-implementation.
We have however worked on an oxygen-based solution, together with axxepta GmbH, called Argon Author: http://argon-author.com <http://argon-author.com/> There is support for checkout/checkin/locking as well as a per file history all implemented in plain XQuery that might serve as a starting point for implementation/discussion :-)

Written for BaseX 9.0. BaseX may have changed since: please check the current documentation.
