The Cocoon project wishes to thank Exoffice Technologies (http://www.exolab.org/) for donating the XSP engine implementation and supporting our project with such good code, ideas and resources. This version incorporates many new features and it's the first release since the creation of the Apache XML Project. New features include: - support for Apache Xerces-j and Sun ProjectX (for XML parsing) - support for Apache Xalan and James Clark's XT (for XSLT processing) - support for Apache FOP (FO+SVG -> PDF generation) - complete support for XSP compiled server pages - documentation generated from XML using Apache Stylebook - built using Jakarta Ant - includes LDAP processor for direct LDAP -> XML generation - includes samples for all possible static and dynamic uses (including VoxML, WAP, VRML) Cocoon has been reported to work on every servlet engine compatible with the Servlet API specification, including Jakarta Tomcat. Future major improvements will address: - sitemap definition and implementation - DOM vs. SAX evaluation on performance and scalability - merge with stylebook Come and get it :) http://xml.apache.org/dist/Cocoon-1.6.jar Legal Note: "XSP" is a trademark of DataChannel which very kindly allows us to use the term. Note, however, that the XSP specification and its implementation were exclusively done by the listed XSP authors and DataChannel has nothing to do with this particular technology. They just happened to trademark the same name we used (as we found out later). -- Stefano Mazzocchi One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.
