Would it be possible to have these two pdf's hosted somewhere? Tutorial material on XSLT and Cocoon would be very useful for me.

Derek, I tried to send a PDF of the training that we used, but it was too large for the list to accept. (It is 288K) Send me an email directly if you want it. Here are the topics in it: 1. Basics a. Directory Structure b. cocoon.xconf c. web.xml d. sitemap e. pipeline basics f. built in generators g. built in transformers h. built in serializers i. protocols (cocoon, context, etc) j. lab 2. Custom components a. Selectors b. actions c. transformers d. generators e. avalon interfaces f. lab 3. XSP a. basics b. advanced c. lab I also have a PDF of our XLST training, but it is too large as well. I can send it to you directly if you want.
