See

But I would recommend you to not bother about the dist samples as no one 
currently maintain them and as they only create a binary distribution, 
they are not intended to be the base for development or anything like that.

Instead I recommend that you try the cocoon-webapp as a first step:

mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true install
cd core/cocoon-webapp
mvn -Dorg.apache.cocoon.mode=develop -e jetty:run

and point your browser to http://localhost:8888/

I added some samples to the cocoon-webapp yesterday, so now it actually 
does something.

When you have experimented with the cocoon-webapp and want to start an 
own project you just follow the instructions in 
http://cocoon.zones.apache.org/daisy/cdocs/g2/g1/g2/1159.html.
