Version 0.8 of icXML (an accelerated version of Xerces-C++) is available

[Rob Cameron <ro...@international-characters.com>]

I am pleased to announce the availability of public SVN access to
icXML 0.8 source code with svn or trac.

svn co http://parabix.costar.sfu.ca/svn/icXML/icXML-0.8
Trac browser: http://parabix.costar.sfu.ca/browser/icXML

icXML is an effort to systematically accelerate the Xerces-C++
parser by restructuring it to incorporate parabix (parallel bit stream)
technology, while maintaining compatibility with Xerces APIs.
Our target is to offer end-to-end acceleration of a broad array
of Xerces applications by 50-100%.

The icXML 0.8 release is a development release intended for
two audiences: Xerces-C++ developers who are potentially
interested in joining the icXML project, and current Xerces-C++
users who are interested in potentially replacing their
Xerces deployments with icXML.

We are presently targeting icXML for 64-bit Linux platforms
running on Intel/AMD architectures.   The Win64 platform will
be supported by icXML version 1.0 as will 32-bit versions,
providing that the underlying hardware supports the SSE2
SIMD extensions.    Support for the ARM architecture with
Neon SIMD extensions is also planned.
