Hi,

MonetDB/XQuery has an integrated HTTP server that treats GET (and PUT,DELETE) 
requests for URLs that end in .xml or .XML in a special way.

Such files are not served from the http file directory (datadir/xrpc/) but are 
taken to be requests for XML documents stored in MonetDB/XQuery.

Since the moment this feature was added, indeed the restriction has been 
imposed that all documents in the database should have a name ending in .xml 
This was done for consistency: now all documents X in the database can be 
retrieved through HTTP (i.e. http://yourserver:50001/X)

If the restriction is not imposed, the HTTP access method will not work anymore 
for all documents.

Peter
