We're back from Jax2002 in Frankfurt. 900 people attended the largest German
conference on Java, Apache and XML (and also Web services). More people were
there than last year - which is promising.

There were 4 Cocoon related sessions.

There was a general Cocoon session by Thomas Bayer - and perhaps he can add
his comments if he reads this. Thomas works for a company called Orientation
in Objects that does a lot of Cocoon related stuff (which was new to us as
we hadn't seen them on the list before). Perhaps we have missed their
postings. Thomas is also writing a German book on Cocoon - if our
information is correct :-).

Neal Ford (The DSW Group Ltd) held a session on targetting Wireless devices
with XSLT and Cocoon. Neil showed this using JBuilder and Cocoon 1. Hmmm. :)

Carsten and I presented the Cocoon XML Portal (around 50 people) and Guido
presented on integrating XML databases into Cocoon (around 30 people).

If you atteded our sessions then we would be interested in feedback! We have
uploaded the session slides for the Portal presentation - so check my Weblog
(http://www.need-a-cake.com) for more information.
