Jelly looks really very promising to me and we should integrate it to cocoon. But IIUC it works more like a generator, because it compiles a XML-Script to a internal representation an then runs this script. Using it as a custom transformer can then be a performance problem because building this script use a lot of memory allocation. James, please correct me if I am wrong. Jelly does not use Avalon in the moment, this mean we have no out of the box access to the ComponentManager/SitemapParameter in a Tag. But the Implementation is very flexible to plug this in. I think using Avalon also in Jelly will be a improvement. This will allow configurable Taglibs and makes Jelly more customizable. James did't you thought about using Avalon in Jelly? If you like I can help to integrate Jelly in Cocoon and think about a integration of the benefits of my implementation. What do you think?
