Ross,

I have been able to add authentication and session blocks and created a
profiled/protected type of document. Here is the link :
http://www.batlin.com/devland/xmlpub/profiling.html. Hope that helps.

I was looking to create a plugin for this, once I get the hang of 07 and
cocoon.xconf splitting is done. 

Regards,

Alex.

Subject: Upgrade cocoon in 0.7-dev

SVN head of Cocoon has just introduced the ability to split cocoon.xconf 
across multiple files. This will make the creation of more advanced 
plugins much easier to manage. My current project requires the use of 
the Authentication and Database blocks, both of which require changes to 
cocoon.xconf. I could do this work on a custom version of Forrest 
locally, or I could upgrade the Cocoon version in SVN and make them plugins.

I've been watching the cocoon list and it seems the cocoon.xconf split 
is currently working, but has problems with in some areas that we do not 
use (forms for example).

Shall I do this locally, or shall I do it in our SVN. If I do it in SVN 
I will ensure that I update it again if changes in Cocoon warrant such 
work. Clearly I would prefer to do it in SVN as it will mean two new 
plugins available for us (both only of use in a dynamic environment though).

Ross
