Reorganizing Samples
Hi,
I would like to re-organize samples shipped with Cocoon: divide them on
separate pages, each of these should fit into the screen or so, but not
so huge as current examples page.
I see following parts on the first welcome page:
<group name="Multimedia Hello World">
- as is,
<group name="Documentation">
- with the additions:
<sample name="Slides" href="slides/slides">
Presentation shown at ApacheCon 2000. (Example of complex XSLT
usage)
</sample>
<sample name="Search the docs" href="search/welcome">
Search into the cocoon documentation using Apache Lucene.
</sample>
<group name="More Samples">
- will have links to other pages:
<sample name="Static Content" href="sample-static">
<sample name="Dynamic Content" href="sample-dynamic">
<sample name="Sources" href="sub/">
<sample name="Web Applications" href="sample-apps">
<group name="System Tools And Pages">
- with the addition:
<sample name="Sitemap Editor" href="sitebuilder/openSubSite/">
Cocoon/JSP based Sitemap Editor.
</sample>
Any comments, suggestions or critics?

Why not... However, one might say that if we follow the example of
Apache HTTPD, Resin, Tomcat, etc, first page user sees is not a
documentation, but something different, with the link to the
documentation.
I do not have strong preference for any of these two ways...

Ahem. Care to donate more recent version? ;)

Sometime ago I put together several (I hope) useful examples of cocoon:
protocol usage. It was primarily used by me to test this, but now I
sometimes recommend users to take a look there to understand
possibilities.

Good point. I have not seen any development on this app since (IIRC) it
get into CVS...

Live samples should a link from there (that will be reflected on the
site once we have forrest running on top of cocoon to host
xml.apache.org)

This is talking about Cocoo1, could be misleading in the 'docs' section,
shouldn't it?

Doc searching should be done at the homepage level.
I would remove the 'documentation' section entirely.

Shouldn't move the sitemap editor into the 'scratchpad' and remove it
from the samples?
I'm not sure I like it there, it seems to be giving the wrong impression
of something unfinished that went there to show off.
Thoughts?
