- <p>
-Apache Cocoon is a complete rewrite of the Cocoon XML publishing framework that
-is supposed to remove all those design constraints that emerged from the
-Cocoon 1 experience.
- </p>
- <p>
-The Apache Cocoon Project has gone a long way since its creation on
-January 1999. It started as a simple servlet for static XSL styling and became
-more and more powerful as new features were added. Unfortunately, design
-decisions made early in the project influenced its evolution. Today, some of
-those constraints that shaped the project were modified as XML standards have
-evolved and solidified. For this reason, those design decisions need to be
-reconsidered under this new light.
- </p>
- <p>
-While Apache Cocoon started as a small step in the direction of a new
-web publishing idea based on better design patterns and reviewed estimations
-of management issues, the technology used was not mature enough for tools to
-emerge. Today, most web engineers consider XML as the key for an improved web
-model and web site managers see XML as a way to reduce costs and ease
-production.
- </p>
- <p>
-In an era where services rather than software will be key for
-economic success, a better and less expensive model for web publishing will
-be a winner, especially if based on open standards.

+ Apache Cocoon is an XML framework that raises the usage of
+ XML and XSLT technologies for server applications to a new level.
+ Designed for performance and scalability around pipelined SAX
+ processing, Cocoon offers a flexible environment based on the
+ separation of concerns between content, logic and style.
+ A centralized configuration system and sophisticated caching
+ top this all off and help you to create, deploy and maintain
+ rock-solid XML server applications.

+ This release of Cocoon is a complete rewrite of the Cocoon XML
+ publishing framework and removes all of those design constraints
+ that emerged from the Cocoon 1 experience.
