I didn't say in absolute terms. But compared to the competition then and now Cocoon1 did better. First results were quick to come by, simple web apps were easy to build. > Anyway don't forget one thing: as a publishing framework, we kick all > the asses we can find, on the commercial world as well. Yes, but to no avail. My impression is that companies don't want/need a publishing framework, they want/need a CMS. And once they have that, the publishing framework is usually included and Cocoon cannot be integrated. I tried to push for Cocoon in our company, but the users outside of the software dev department didn't want a piece of it. They want a nice GUI to manage their content painlessly.
