MarkMail Enables Developers to Tap Into Java Brain Trust by Incorporating java.net Mail Archives

SAN CARLOS, CA, Jul 22 (MARKET WIRE) --
Mark Logic(R) Corporation, provider of the industry's leading XML content
platform, today announced that MarkMail, a free service for searching
mailing list archives available at http://markmail.org/, has added group
messages from the highly influential java.net community. In cooperation
with CollabNet, the leading provider of solutions for distributed software
development and the system that powers http://java.net, more than 975,000
emails were loaded into the MarkMail system. The java.net community
members now have the ability to seamlessly query across the structured and
unstructured parts of email, including attachments, and unlock the
tremendous value embedded in these messages.

Founded in 2003, java.net is the realization of a vision of a diverse
group of engineers, researchers, technologists and evangelists at Sun
Microsystems, Inc. to provide a common area for interesting conversations
and innovative development projects related to Java technology. With
nearly 450,000 total members, java.net encompasses a wealth of
community-based knowledge in its ongoing email discussions, which most
recently totaled 40,000 emails per month as shown by the following
MarkMail histogram.

"Wow -- the features in MarkMail are cool and you quickly get the feeling
it is just the tip of the iceberg," said Marla Parker, community manager
for java.net, in a recent blog post. "To assist users, we plan to create a
page on java.net with a bunch of sample queries and instructions on how
new active mailing lists on java.net can get added to the MarkMail
archive."

MarkMail was launched in November 2007 with four million messages from the
Apache Software Foundation. Since the site's unveiling, MarkMail has
garnered rave reviews from both the community and industry watchers, and
continues to add content relevant to a wide breadth of software
developers. Today, MarkMail hosts more than 16 million messages across
3,800 mailing lists, including umbrella communities such as Apache,
Codehaus, Mozilla, and the World Wide Web Consortium, technology-specific
communities such as Eclipse, GNOME, KDE, MySQL, NetcoolUsers, Perl,
Python and Xen, and a broad spectrum of other projects.

"I've been working with Java for over a decade now and it's really
gratifying both personally and professionally to be able to bring
MarkMail's advanced search and discovery capabilities to the java.net
community -- to projects such as GlassFish, jMaki, AppFuse, Grizzly,
Hudson and WebWork," said Jason Hunter, principal technologist for
MarkMail at Mark Logic Corporation. "Having the java.net list archives
available in MarkMail will help speed project development, make it easier
for users to find answers, and make it possible to track what's happening
across thousands of lists for the first time."

About MarkMail

The free MarkMail service provides sophisticated search functionality with
a powerful faceted navigation interface. Combined with real-time
analytics, the system delivers a new, state-of-the-art experience for
interacting with large-scale message archives, such as those used by open
source projects. MarkMail's powerful functionality and fluid user
experience were built utilizing the unique capabilities of MarkLogic
Server for handling semi-structured content. With MarkMail, users can
seamlessly query across the structured and unstructured parts of email,
including attachments, unlocking the value trapped inside millions of
emails. By observing structure in the seemingly free-form content of the
message body and automatically weighting query terms appropriately,
MarkMail delivers results far superior to simple full-text search. In
addition, MarkMail presents analytic information based on header
information and other message metadata, enabling user drill down and
query refinement. The results are a single interactive experience that
lets users rapidly focus in on the answers they are seeking. For more
