Just for your information: There was a request for a link on our livesites few days ago: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-users&m=107739164525051&w=4. Though Cocoon is not mentioned on the website (http://edoc.mpg.de/) the Max Planck Society (one of the most known (if not famous) German research organisations) seems to use Cocoon as its documentation management system. The project page also mentions DSpace (http://edoc.mpg.de/doc/help/edoc_info.epl). Only the presentation seems to be done by "Embedded Perl" - I didn't hear of it before. Joerg
