[FYI] Cocoon 0.9
I was looking for some old pictures in my archive CDs and found the very
first release of Apache Cocoon, so old that it never left my computer,
until now where you can find it here:
http://www.apache.org/~stefano/archeology/Cocoon0.9.zip
It's 50Kb big and the creation date says 8 February 1999.
Impressive that in three years, the Cocoon distribution managed to move
from 50Kb to well over 18Mb.
The code is utterly useless for any purpose since almost all the code is
obsolete and the libraries it used don't exist anymore, but I placed it
there just to show how powerful OSS development can be.
Enjoy :)

Keep in mind that 50Kb is the size of the Cocoon jar.
The current size of the cocoon jar (minus all the support libraries) is
~800Kb. So it's grown by a factor of 16, not 368.

Yeah!
OSS development can produce monsters too and does it faster and cheaper
than the traditional "commercial" methods!

Shameless plug, but seriously expect *much* more attention in the future
:)

Yes indeed. And given the attention Cocoon has been receiving during the past few weeks, it seems it was the right
choice to keep tracking Cocoon instead of the others :-))

Yes, I do.
At that time there were four independent projects doing server side XSLT
(that I know of, at least)
1) docproc
2) javalobby's project (don't remember the name, but was used to
generate the javalobby home page)
3) IBM alphaworks XSLT servlet (later discontinued)
4) Cocoon
So Cocoon has never been the first to do this, but the first to
introduce the notion of XML pipelines on the server side :)

Does anyone remember the very similar docproc?
http://www.lists.ic.ac.uk/hypermail/xml-dev/xml-dev-Nov-1997/0216.html
and thanks to google's cache

It was this project that inspired me to track serverside XSLT
frameworks, and after a while Cocoon came into existence :-)
