[Fwd: cocoon.xconf in subdirectory]
This question was asked in cocoon-users a few days ago, but there was no
definitive answer. I'm bringing it here since I think it is relevant to
the cocoon-apps discussion. If it is possible to have a cocoon.xconf
file in a subdirectory be read at startup, it would be much easier to
develop apps. For example, I need to add a jdbc datasource to
cocoon.xconf for my blogging app and it would be great to be able not to
touch the main cocoon.xconf at all.

yes.
http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur/configuration/configuration-merger.html
Two xconf files, cocoon.xconf and cocoon-user.xconf. cocoon.xconf is the
"base" and cocoon-user.xconf is the "layer". When creating the Configuration
for the primary container, merge the base and layer with
http://jakarta.apache.org/avalon/excalibur/configuration/api/org/apache/excalibur/configuration/merged/ConfigurationMerger.html
There is also a ConfigurationSplitter, which takes a merged configuration and
a base and computes what the layer would be (good for a config tool that
presents the original config to the user, they modify, and only save the
differences.

Ain't there a merge stuff for Configuration somewhere now in Avalon?

AFAIK it's not possible.
