Hello, OODBMS allows you to make java objects directly persistent from Java code. There is no SQL queries involved in the middle. Theoretically, when the complexity of the queries increases or when we find ourselves doing a lot of table joins, OODBMS becomes faster than RDBMS. So, if we find that we have lots of user attributes, permissions and document properties, perhaps OODBMS will be faster than RDBMS. In any case, this is a pure Java solution. Please look at the open source solutions below http://infozone-group.org/ http://www.ozone-db.org/ Ozone OODBMS allows us to store and retrieve XML documents. Also, it implements two phase commit interfaces to support distributed databases. Will let you know soon about ArgoUML.

So I usually use Visio for UML diagrams but in these days I've tried ArgoUML, do you know about that?The great thing is that is opensource software, seems good, let you save diagrams in .gif format butthe main thing is that because of it's free we can assume that tool like the official UML tool. Do you agree? Can you try it? You can download it from http://argouml.tigris.org. Have a look and let me know.If also for you could be fine we can use it and I'll take care to rewrite all my diagrams with ArgoUMLand then save them in .gif format. Can you go through the new documentation? We've changed the Word document format to HTML. More lighter and flexible. That HTML is obtained starting from xml files that will be transformedusing an XSL file. Download the updated, compile the documentation with ant and go through. Regarding the database I must say that I'm excited from the idea to use an OO db. Can you giveme an idea about what are the benefits on using that technology in that application respect to using relational DBs? Do we have a strong OO db available to use? Is it possible to have a J2EE applicationalso using OO db? Ashwini, because you're in trouble with your job and you don't have too much time to dedicateto eDocs, of course, I've asked to other three people Rahmat Begum, Fakhar Ahsan and Narasimha Reddy to work on the tasks related to search engine and storage. Can you coordinate them on their job? Rahmat, Fakhar, Narasimha I'll introduce you Ashwini Kumar. He is the manager in charge of the design anddevelopment of the storage and search engine part of eDocs. Please coordinate with him about your work.I hope you do that soon.

I am in the process of moving in between countries I am not in Canada anymore and am in the US. I will soon have to go to India as well to look for jobs. I also have to prepare for interviews and am not very well set up with fast internet access here. But I will try to spend some time for my assignments this week. What tools do you want me to use to build UML diagrams etc? I do not have Visio or any other tool here with me. Perhaps I should just use MS Word to build the diagrams. Are you interested in using object oriented or Relational databases to store documents? Thanks, Ashwini --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Y!
