Who We Are
Since the summer of 2002, Darin McBeath has been developing
applications in XQuery. As these XQuery applications became more complex, it became obvious that
a seamless tool was needed to assist with documenting his ever growing and complex
XQuery library modules and main modules. Furthermore, as more developers within the Elsevier organization
began to experiment with XQuery, he was receiving recurring requests for example XQuery
code and supporting explanation. Lastly, as he began to assist developers with their
XQuery applications, he quickly realized the importance of a cross referencing tool
for XQuery library and main modules to expedite his understanding of an XQuery application.
To fill these needs, he developed xqDoc.
