quick, generic implementation of Cocoon project

[Yahoo <jo...@yahoo.com>]

I've started an opensource project to make a flexible database
backed Cocoon based web application suite with an XSP tag library
of applications to allow for easy, rapid deoployment of full
featured Java/XML/SQL web sites.

In case this is ambigous, this is meant to make Cocoon easier
to use and make it possible for people with creative ideas and
light technical skills able to take advantage of some great software
(like Apache, Jserv, Cocoon, etc.).

 This would be something where you could have bulletin boards,
link collections and whatever else you so often see on sites
(or have to develop) deployable by just installing and customizing.
Please give it a look if you're interested in such a thing, or
if you'd like to flex your Java/XML/XSL/SQL  muscles.

Definitely. The core team should focus on the architecture, but others
can build their apps around it. Once cocoon2 is released and stable, we
can always think of a good way to plug in external stuff.

I like it too.

But I would like to focus on getting the world on the architecture done
first... maybe we can integrate whatever comes from that project inside
the xml.apache.org umbrella...

yeah, well, you know I'm wide open to suggestion and improvements :)

This is an overly ambitious project, like cocoon ;-)

Anyway, I'd like to have this. Pluggable modules of some sort for a
cocoon-driven website - that rocks. Do I need a forum on my website?
Don't bother implementing something or using some software, that does
not fit into the cocoon model very well - just use the forum module for
cocoon. Kind of like Apache and its modules, I like that idea.
