Nicola is writing a skin for it, I'm trying to figure out how to pass a freaking request parameter into an xml form from outside of the form, then I should be able to nail the rest of it out. All the code minus the branding will be donated to cocoon ASL of course. Lastly, the site will actually go live so it will be a bit more than the petshop. >A side-affect, and general improvement will be that Cocoon will begin >to be shaped by the blueprint.
