“XAO Inc., a privately held spin off of VA Linux, announced the release of the XAO 1.0 Web server, a
Web-services software package based on Apache. According to the press release, “XAO 1.0 allows
companies to integrate data quickly from disparate sources such as relational databases, legacy
applications, ERP systems, and other application servers and make them available in a standardized
fashion. The resulting information or system can then be made available as a web service or in whatever
data format is needed for the customer.””
“XAO 1.0 is released under the XAO Open License, basically a copy of the Sleepycat License except for the
name change. XAO, the company, is also pitching a host of consulting services, including deploying “Open
SourceForge,” a non-proprietary version of VA’s SourceForge collaborative development package.”
