              I am happy to announce the availability of version
              1.0.8 of EMC XProc Engine, EMC's XProc processor
              implementation. The processor is free for developer
              use and can be downloaded - together with other XML
              tools - from the EMC XML Developer Community website.

              This is the first public release of the processor. Note
              that while version 1.0.8 supports most of the required
              features of XProc, the implementation is not yet complete.

        <p>XProc Engine implements most of the required
          features of the XProc specification. For an overview of the
          supported features, and the progress of the implementation,
          see the XProc Test Suite website.

        <p>Plug-ins can extend the processor and customize
          the default behavior or provide new functionality, such as
          extension XProc steps.
        </p>
      </p:inline>
      <p:inline>
        <p>The XProc Engine distribution comes with a number
          of plug-ins that can be used with the processor. Software
          developers can use the XProc Engine API to create custom
          plug-ins.

        <p>The Java application programming interface makes
          it easy to embed the XProc Engine in other Java applications.
        </p>
      </p:inline>
      <p:inline>
        <p>XProc Engine provides an interface for running
          XProc pipelines from the command-line.</p>
      </p:inline>
      <p:inline>
        <p>XProc Engine can be integrated with the EMC
          Documentum xDB XML database (via a plug-in). The plug-in
          provides a number of xDB-specific XProc steps, and allows
          developers to combine the benefits of a state-of-the-art
          native XML database and XProc.
