please keep in mind that the name 'Apache Cocoon' is protected, and that it will be up to the discretion of the Apache Cocoon PMC or the ASF board to let 'other projects' use it.thank you very much for your comment. Yes, it is all true and I am not a friend of MS closed sources in any way. We know Java very well but you hardly get peoply who can do the real thinks with Cocoon and can develop a real application ... not just some test cases and handler forms. In thins case a .NET application would not be easier to handle too, but maybe there is some company who can provide a Cocoon Clone which is as easy to use as PHP. I mean no memory leaks in the VM, no complicated superlong configration files, no VM restarting for debugging etc
This doesn't say you are not allowed to port, it just says that you would not be able to use the name 'Apache Cocoon' without prior permission. Getting that permission could be tricky, or even more wicked, creating a subproject _inside_ Apache Cocoon to do a .Net port, could be a challenge, largely dependent on the community one could create around such an effort.
