I don't mind, if you think it's nice to keep the TMAPI / tinyTiM
versions aligned. Let's call it "1.5".

Yes, but tinyTiM has some other problems. The TMAPI tests are
sufficient to test all aspects of a Topic Maps engine.

I submit some unit test but we can create more. Tests do no harm. ;)

Anyway, I think I won't have much time to work intensively on tinyTiM
in the next weeks since I've to finish together with Gab and Dmitry
the next CTM draft. Additionally, I have two other Topic Maps engines
in the pipeline and I like to finish / publish the MIO project. The
re-creation of tinyTiM was an accident / not planned. ;)

I'd propose to keep them separated. We include a test-runner for these
but the tests itself should not be imported into the SVN.

Hmm... no I meant interfaces like "Typed" or "Reifiable" I created
for the new codebase.

Hmmm... your codebase is still untouched in the CVS, so there is no
reason to kill XTM4XMLDB, I think.

Attached. Sorry. I deleted the "docs" directory by mistake but
fortunately it is in the CVS. I made a backup of the "index.html". You
can upload it again if you want but then the redirection to the Wiki
does not work anymore (if SF sees a "index.php" and a "index.html" it
prefers the ".html").

Best regards,
Lars
