I've heard of one commercial one, and supposedly Oracle is going to do
some XML stuff also.

This is one thing I would like to write, actually. It's just a database
that can deal with XML structure/relationships. I've seen a few papers
talking about it (they call it semi-structured data). Then XQL, XML-Q?, or
whatever the w3c comes up with for an XML query language. Also, a DOM and
SAX interface would be good, too.

I'll see if I can find any references, again.
