Status Report 21 March 2005

Difference between version 2 and version 1:

Line 24 was replaced by line 24
- * The previous week was spent in creating an 'RExpression' actor which allows the user to use the R system inside Kepler with a minimum of effort. A preliminary actor ('RExpression') has been created and checked into CVS. Several example workflows have also been created (see kepler/workflows/test/gce-mollusc-avg_by_spp_R.xml)__This new actor is still under development.

Lines 36-37 were replaced by lines 36-37
- * Develop a new algorithm for importing XML Schema files into the __internal schema trees in SCIA, based on Apache__XML Schema APIs and DOM 3 APIs, in order to acquire constraint __information and more useful type information for matching and mapping, and__also to support more __complicated XML Schema files, including EML
- * Look for new free XQuery engine. There are two main reasons for this.__Firstly, the Quilt engine, Kweelt, which we are using now, uses a very old__version of xerces package that is not compatible with the new version__that covers XML Schema__APIs. In addition, SCIA'd better generate view in standard XQuery, in__order to easily work with other applications together
