With the planned development of new features, GRML finally becomes a complement to SQL. The upgrades do not include full support for SQL capabilities. However, as development continues, these missing features provide a clear path for future improvements.

Currently, the next versions of GRML are designed to support the following: grouping, joining, and sorting. The implementation of these capabilities is achieved by rearranging the tags in a file or web page. Instead of having to learn a new syntax or keyword commands to use these features, the tags contain the logical ordering and processing for content.

To sort, a new <sort name> tag is used. The name attribute is used to define the dimension used for sorting. The child tags determine the columns to be sorted, and their sort order. Likewise, a <group name> parent tag is used for grouping. The child tags determine the columns to use for grouping individual results.

These improvements are in development and are planned to be released in January, 2005. Not all features have full commitment and are dependent on their practical application to the markup language.
