Yes. Be sure to read http://xml.apache.org/dist/LICENSE.txt though.

I don't know, can you? :) If you make a good application that people want
to buy, cocoon won't stop you!

As it was mentioned before, you aren't guaranteed anything from this list.
If you have a problem on a weekend for instance, you are probably less
likely to get an immediate response as i'm sure some folks only read the
list at the office.

I'd recommend cocoon2. That is where all the development effort is going
and some really interesting work is being done there. Depends on the
projected lifetime of your project.

the "Why use cocoon" question. I got that here from the phb's.

probably not. I think cocoon lets you easily operate on your
standards-compliant-xml data, and makes its pretty easy to inter operate
with other systems via xml, but it isn't really a standard in and of itself.

I have not, but it is on the board as something to do down the road.

There is AxKit (http://axkit.org) which is similar to cocoon1 but in perl.
I believe somebody posted about a similar java toolkit here in the past,
check the archives.

There are some slides on the cocoon2 site that a developer from HP made
that gives a high level overview of cocoon2.
hope this helps :)
