New improved SOCKET! The latest build can now be downloaded from

06 May 2008. We commissioned a development project to extend the range of the SOCKET tool and we are pleased to announce that the default factory, Rose, can now handle infinitely nested complex datatypes and file attachments! This version is now in HEAD at our SourceForge CVS code repository. There will be some testing and refinement of the XSLT/CSS style sheets in the next couple of weeks before we take SOCKET out of beta.
Thanks to Atif Suleman for the coding.
