See my comment about excalibur docs below.  What would it take to bundle at
least the javadocs for the various excalibur and avalon versions used in
cocoon's cvs?  It can be a real pain to figure out which release/cvs date we
are using for each piece (framework, source resolver, cache, etc), check out
excalibur's cvs, and build docs from source to fill in the missing pieces
for a cocoon question.

Don't know that off hand - it's using Excalibur Source Resolver, so you'll
have to go digging through docs/source there.

Unfortunately, 90% of the time, the api docs at excalibur give a 404.  I
often wish the Avalon/Excalibur docs from the appropriate version were
bundled with cocoon and this is one of those times.

It may be faster to just try it.
