Hi,
no but Michi and Alex from the Basex and myself will be at TEKOM Stuttgart.
Anyways, I will have a look at it, for sure!

Hi,
Anyone on the list coming to Amsterdam the 6th of November? We may have some beers together.
I will (finally) be presenting on the Origami templating library. I'm still working on it over on Github (in the unstable branch). After a pause in development it was almost completely rewritten. I intend to cut a new release just before the conference.
Here's the anouncement I made for the conference website.
XQuery 3.1 is still a candidate for recommendation by the W3C. Nevertheless there are already various implementations ready for use today. The introduction of maps and arrays, and the availability of functional weaponry such as fold and apply may change the way you write XQuery applications. You can still wield the trusty weapons of XPath and the FLWOR expression while, at the same time, adopting a more functional style of programming.
Origami is an ongoing exploration of templating in XQuery and it makes heavy use of this functional style. It started with a quest for a more XSLT-like transformation capability and recently took a nice turn with the adoption of a flavor of micro-XML, with a heavy reliance on maps and arrays. Origami's unfolding design tries to honour principles of simplicity and composability. With Origami I aim to decomplect, or disentangle, several aspects common to templating problems and offer them in a powerful library using a couple of simple abstractions.
With some practical code examples I will demonstrate how to use Origami to implement different templating styles.
