BaseX 7.0.1 released

Some week ago, new version of my favorite XQuery database BaseX was released - and it contained so many changes and updates, that

• they decided to jump to version 7.0
• some small things had to be resolved (in released version), that new 7.0.1 had to appear

And here it is

I already did some tests on 7.0 and all worked fine for me, so I recommend giving it a try.

From the announcement (see also 7.0 announcement - there are really many new features like functional WebDAV server etc.):

XQUERY:
- much faster execution of count() when applied to opened databases

SERVER (http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Startup_Options#BaseX_HTTP_Server):
- Flag -c connects to an existing database server
- Flag -s specifies a port for stopping the HTTP server (Jetty)
