What about Cocoon?
Today I was doing something I rarely do: reading comments on Slashdot. In particular, I was reading the comments about a JSP/Taglib book. Curiosity kicked in, and I clicked the comments link.
To my surprise, one of the highest-moderated posts was one entitled, “What about Cocoon?”
Indeed, what about Cocoon? Nobody seems to have the time to mess with it (Outside, of course, from the Cocoon community), so I will now answer the question.
Q: What about Cocoon?
A: Cocoon is a bitchin’, kick-ass XML web publishing system. It has a beautiful and elegant architecture, and is more powerful than it initially appears. It is complex, but it is worth every minute spent working with it. It may even set off some mindbombs. Everyone should use Cocoon, and someone should hire me to work with Cocoon full-time.
And that’s “what about Cocoon” … don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.
