I think those of us who are decent admins or writers but shitty coders
appreciate that you work on the code than the docs =)  So far I have
no big gripes with the docs, but I'm just getting started.  When I get
further in, I'll be happy to shove some documentation along if I
perceive a need.

For anyone who wants to contribute in such a manner, it's useful to
start by reading the list archives to see what questions come up again
and again (and aren't already in the docs).  For example, "How do I
capture form input?".  The quick answer is "write a servlet or use
xmlForms", but with Cocoon's publishing abilities it's easy for
newcomers/newbies to expect this feature as well.

A form taglib has been talked about and I think someone wanted to
implement it.
