I don't want cocoon to crawl at all ;) I find it much easier to 
include/exclude things explicitly using ant include/exclude. Then I can work 
out exactly which pages will be transformed without worrying whether the 
links to all pages a re present.

Anakias project.xml file has the links that are relative to the base project 
dir start with a "/" if that helps any.

Essentially theres a few tools that add something like

<!-- Created by Cocoon on 15'th Dec 1987 -->

on end of page. Not sure if cocoon does it or not. The problem with this is of 
course that almost every page will be different if the site is regenerated 
but many of the changed files would only have a different date if you know 
what I mean.
