COODBMS is a new kind of OODBMS which works with standarized structures of objects out of which applications can be constructed. The result is a tremendous reduction in the amount of code needed to implement an application as well as opening the door for fully configurable GUI's.
Clients interact with the database server over regular sockets, with requests/responses using RoleML, an extensible XML dialect.
With release 0.13 we introduce a scripting capability. Until now, new releases often required changes to the initial configuration of a branch and there was no easy way to migrate existing branches forward. But subsequent releases will now include scripts which can be applied to existing branches.
Release 0.13 also includes improved error reporting and an import/export file capability allowing documents to be maintained within a branch.
