freshmeat.net: Project details for amoeba

freshmeat.net: Project details for amoeba: "amoeba is an XML-based framework for Web environment development backed by XML databases (Berkeley DB XML or eXist native XML database). It's deployable as a war archive in servlet containers (like Tomcat and/or Jetty). Almost no Java knowledge or Java programming is required while developing with amoeba, except for extending base framework functionality. Programming in amoeba means writing XML documents. The environment has seven domain-specific languages: pipeline (general XML processing using language features and by calling tasks), sitemap (for connecting the Web environment to all other languages), form (HTTP forms processing), modification (XML document modifications), resource (file resource processing), berkeley-db-xml, and test (unit testing and XML Diff)."
