Generation of Static Pages using the Cache

Conceptual question from someone who knows next to nothing about XML /
Cocoon.... (Finally got the demos pages working last night.)

Background:

I support two web sites where the development work is done on internal
systems, behind firewalls.  When things look good, 'rsync' is used to
mirror the pages to external systems which are basically static. (Still
decent response on Sparc2 systems. :)

There are many perceived advantages to this, which could be discussed
elsewhere.  Reading the Cocoon documentation, I came across the
description of the cache function and wondered:


Using Cocoon, is it possible ( practical :) to generate a "static"
web site that can be mirrored to an alternate host for viewing?

you might try posting the query on the cocoon-users list instead.

I did not see/receive any response to this request.  Another part of my
problem is that one web site that I support is on a shared server that I
have no control over and does not support anything but static pages and
perl based CGI scripts.

Thus, I do development on one system using "pumpgen"
	http://www.pumpkindesign.nl/pumpgen/ 
and simply mirror the files to the real site.  I guess what I am really
looking for is the next generation "pumpgen".
