Sounds like a CDK. It also touches the discussed RT about CAR (Cocoon webapp archive) to enable deployment of individual apps into one Cocoon instance. I suggest to have a ant target to build it. The place to have the needed files for it (special build.xml, sitemap.xmap, etc) should go into the src/cdk directory (once we have moved to a Avalon like structure of the repository). What are others think about it?
