Hear, Hear. If each person would contribute just one sentence
per day to documentation, then we would all immediately benefit.
It is so obvious that it is scary. Is it human nature that makes
us bicker, or blow our ego trumpet, and forget to contribute?

Probably so. It is an amazing world where people take a
freely available product, add spit-and-polish and use it
successfully for themselves. Yet never contribute back
to the project.

It would be even better for the documentation effort to be
focussed back on the core Cocoon product.

We have too much separation of effort... websites about Cocoon,
various different Wiki with haphazard and repetitive content,
stacks of blabber on two different mailing lists (yet none on
the cocoon-docs list). All this time there are no changes
being contributed into the actual CVS documentation. So no
wonder that the core documentation is lacking.
