I won't talk about the docs - we know ;-)
...What I do like as well, and this might be
easier (as in quicker) to accomplish is the fact that they have live samples
on their website...
They were discussions a while ago that we might get a virtual machine on ASF infrastructure, but I haven't heard more.
If we had this it would be fairly easy to setup a live instance of Cocoon for the samples (including automatic daily cleanup, we can simply wipe out the thing every day and rebuild it from a cron job).
You're right that having live samples would be very helpful, if only because we could refer users to live URLs to see things working (and the corresponding source code),
It could be a good motivation to make the samples more self-describing, which IMO is the best way of explaining the details.
I've been playing with the openlaszlo samples yesterday night, being able to copy code into a web page and seeing the results immediately is an incredibly good way of learning (wouldn't be so easy with Cocoon apps but you get the idea I think).
...I know server hosting will be a problem, but maybe it's running somewhere
already which could be made available to "the world"?..
Problem is, the load (CPU and bandwidth) on such a server is hard to estimate, so people might be wary of giving space on a machine that's used for something else.
But if someone has a spare Linux machine somewhere (preferably Debian), or if this ASF virtual server things comes to life, I'd be happy to help setup and maintain this, assuming it would be considered a "best effort" and not a critical thing.
