+1 from me! I do think having a cocoon-docs CVS would help rather than hinder this though, as we could easily allow updating of the documentation with no danger that any of the code might be attacked by an errant CMS.
Yes, I was thinking exactly this when I changed my vote, even if I don't think that the apache infrastructure will ever allow a CMS to become *committer* to the CVS repository.
however, separating documents from code in different modules, would allow (in theory, at least) to setup a CMS that has commit priviledges only on the documentation module, thus leaving the code fully protected from potential exploits of the CMS.
If there is *one* single change of having such CMS cleared by our infrastructure team, separating the modules will sure increase this chance, not reduce it.
This is, IMO, the biggest argument in favor of such a separation.
