We would like to thank the following organizations and corporations for supporting and sponsoring the development of eXist:
| The pluggable Security Manager, LDAP authentication and the Access Control List permissions, featured in eXist-db since August 2011, were made possible by sponsorship from the Cluster of Excellence 'Asia and Europe', Heidelberg University. | ![]() |
| The new indexing engine featured in eXist-db, since version 1.1, was made possible through the agency of the University of Victoria node of the Canadian TAPoR consortium, who have made it available for general use. | TAPoR |
| Trapeze Networks, headquartered in Pleasanton, Calif., has continuously sponsored improvements and new features since 2004 and helped to advance development by testing and deploying eXist-db in a production environment. |
|
| Major parts of the XQuery implementation were motivated and sponsored by the project: "Exemplarische Internet-Edition der Werke des jungen Goethe und Jakob Michael Reinhold Lenz'", funded by the Fritz-Thyssen Stiftung. Project lead: Prof. Dr. Karl Eibl (Institut für Deutsche Philologie, Ludwig- Maximilians- Universität München), Prof. Dr. Fotis Jannidis (Institut für Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaft, TU Darmstadt). |
|
| The eXist-db Wiki, the demo server and other vital parts of our project infrastructure are kindly hosted by Fri programvaru-syndikatet / exist-db.se in Sweden. |
|
| The Devon Portal Project sponsored development of various bug fixes and donated the mail, context and sql extension modules. The Devon Portal is a partnership of Local Authorities in Devon, UK. |
|
| The versioning extensions, released with eXist-db 1.4, were kindly sponsored by the Telota Initiative of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities. |
|
| XML and non-XML resources of an eXist-db database can be edited and processed with XSLT and XQuery seamlessly in <oXygen/> XML Editor/Author both through an eXist-db connection and through WebDAV in an integrated environment. |
|
| Jetbrains' Team City is used to ensures that new changes do not break the eXist-db codebase and build nightly installer snapshots. |
