To: general@xml.apache.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I was really impressed with what I read about the SQL processor. I rent space with Inetu, and they run Apache on FreeBSD, with Jserv and Cocoon, but they don't have the SQL processor set up, and don't intend to at the moment. Is there a way I could run the SQL processor on my own?
