What is COB-INF?
In Cocoon 2.2 the generate block contains a folder called COB-INF which
I think stands for Cocoon Block, may be. However, what is this directory
and where can I configure it's name?
Why would the root of the block be /COB-INF when referring to it in the
sitemap <map:generate src="demo/welcome.xml"/>
Then in the /META-INF/cocoon/spring/demo-application-context.xml file it
becomes <bean id="demo" class="demo.MyBean" scope="singleton"> ?!!
I really don't understand this. I find it very confusing. Can someone
help here?

Go to http://cocoon.apache.org/2.2/core-modules/ (reachable by any 2.2 or main
page) and click on the module "Core" at the first table on the page.

I don't know how to arrive to this page through the menus!
If I click the Core 2.2 on the upper row, only the list of blocks appear.
Maybe there are a lot of interesting and hidden documentation pages.

I am writing a tutorial about this. I am editing few mistakes and
testing the contents by following every step.
I will post the link as soon as I get it ready.

In the other thread you wrote [1]:
"Basically, you are trying to get the user to create a "block that uses
Cocoon" and deploy it to a Cocoon deployment. So in other word you are
making Cocoon a platform. The block that I created is not a Cocoon
application but an application that runs under Cocoon's deployment."
This pretty much hits the nail on the head. A Cocoon block is to Cocoon
what a servlet is to a servlet container (or web app to web app
container). So you also find pretty much the same directory structure in
a Cocoon block and COB-INF matches WEB-INF as Reinhard wrote.

A Cocoon block may contain Java classes, component declerations (Avalon and
Spring style) and Cocoon applications. The directory structure was derived from
these needs because we had to make sure that everything has its own place:
/COB-INF/** The Cocoon application (sitemaps, templates, etc.)
/META-INF/cocoon/** All configuration files
/** Java classes and Java resources
And yes, COB-INF stands for COcoon block and the name was chosen in analogy to
e.g. WEB-INF.
