Hello List!

Project:M36 0.8 is now available.

https://github.com/agentm/project-m36

v0.8 includes a complete backend overhaul which introduces a new
architecture focusing on data independence. This release does not
change any client library APIs.

"Data independence" separates the concerns of the presentation of data
to users and what stored on disk. Project:M36 accomplishes this by
storing a transaction graph with schema update expressions rather than
the updated schemas themselves. This allows any number of
representations of the data- including denormalized forms- to be
stored in a purgable and optional cache.

Read more about data independence here:
https://github.com/agentm/project-m36/blob/master/docs/data_independence
.markdown

Project:M36 purports to be the first database to implement this new
architecture which I hope will push the envelope in database backend
design. There's plenty of work to do to make this architecture
complete including:

* an improved planner
* a configurable query cache
* a machine-learning-based query cache

Let me know if you would like to team up for design or implementation.

As always, you can reach me here or at chat.freenode.net #project-m36

Cheers,
M
