Would it be possible for someone to put together an idiots guide to using 
Xindice with Cocoon2?

I am seeing conflicting advice in the mailing lists, docs, and website and 
it is really confusing me. (Hence I am not in a position to write the 
idiots guide myself :-(


Assume I don't care about old dbXML versions of the database, Xindice is 
the current version.
(It was really confusing to have the API and program called the same thing: 
When I see dbxml I never know whether it refers to the API or old software.)

Should I be using Generators? I can't find any relevant code in the recent 
Cocoon2.0.rc2 build and am not keen to go to cvs if I can avoid it. The 
website and docs say to use them - but people on the mailing list say not to.

When using the dbxml:xindice://db/somethingorotherquery source how do I 
tell it *where* the database resides? Is the word "xindice" a machine name 
in this example query?


Sorry for asking so many questions in the last couple of days...
=====================
PS I never got to the bottom of my slow PDF generation problem. FOP works 
fine when run from the command line.... so I have a work around
