Yes, Michael please do write up your impressions of BDB XML verses  
eXist.  Others on the list should feel free to compare us with other  
similar products too.  Its invaluable to us to hear how we are doing  
relative to other solutions.  I take that into account when  
advocating new development work on our products.  The squeaky wheel  
theory applies here.  If you don't want to email the list, you can  
always just email me directly.
