Whitebeam 1.1.5 released

Whitebeam is an open source web-application server built on PostgreSQL for data storage and the Mozilla SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine for application logic.

Started in 2000 and released as open source in 2001, Whitebeam is a mature product that has been in commercial operation hosting real web applications for over 6 years. Examples of commercial applications :

The latest release (1.1.5) follows several years of continuous development in both performance and functionality. JavaScript bindings are provided to the PostgreSQL database, LibGD for image manipulation, SMTP for email creation, HTTP for SOAP and XML/RPC like applications amongst others.

For those that don't want to write SQL, Whitebeam 'Templates' provide high-level functional abstractions. In addition the templates avoid any possibility of 'SQL injection' security issues common with other web development platforms. Examples of 'templated' functionality include hierarchical tree-like catalogues, session management, contact/membership management and data collections.
