  The "Karlsruhe Astrophysical Database of Nucleosynthesis in Stars" (KADoNiS)
project is an online database for experimental cross sections relevant to the s
process and p process. It is available under
http://nuclear-astrophysics.fzk.de/kadonis and consists of two parts. Part 1 is
an updated sequel to the previous Bao et al. compilations from 1987 and 2000
for (n,$\gamma$) cross sections relevant to the big bang and s-process
nucleosynthesis. The second part will be an experimental p-process database,
which is expected to be launched in winter 2005/06. The KADoNiS project started
in April 2005, and a first partial update is online since August 2005. In this
paper we present a short overview of the first update of the s-process
database, as well as an overview of the status of stellar (n,$\gamma$) cross
sections of all 32 p isotopes.
