Hi everyone,
I'm attempting to analyse what the Cocoon community wants from itself. Examining the referrer logs for PlanetCocoon (last week of March) yielded the following top 30 search terms:
9 cforms 7 torsten curdt 6 how to get label value bean value in javascript 4 adam ratcliffe 4 cform cocoon 4 cocoon createbinding 4 cowarp 4 i18n cocoon 4 javaflow cocoon 4 planetcocoon 3 bugzilla 34077 3 calculator jxtemplate 3 cannot compile cocoon 3 cocoon fom 3 content is not allowed in prolog 3 ehcache 3 hibernate cforms cocoon 3 jxtemplate 3 nullpointerexception 3 ralph goers 3 xquerytransformer 3 yves vindevogel 2 _i18n cocoon 2 antonio gallardo 2 anyware technologies cocoon plugin 2 avalon-framework leak 2 bruno dumon 2 build failed: could not create task or type of type: if. 2 caching cocoon 2 cforms cocoon
In a very rough and subjective analysis, it seems to me that Cocooners are looking for information about:
Cforms 35
People 21
Errors 16
Flow 7
I18n 6
Caching 5
Ideas:
1. Cocoon Forms examples. I am going to add more recipes on PlanetCocoon, and port the samples to documents. Is there anyone else working on this?
2. Information about cocoon developers. Let's create people pages, showing who has done what, indicating expertise, links to blogs etc. At the moment we have the personal pages on the Wiki. I'll start with those.
3. Errors. Perhaps we could create a hotline, where (in connection with the suggestion in 2.) we can better target queries at people with the ability to answer them? Establish a collective of cforms experts, etc.
Do you think the results of the above are typical? What are Cocoon bloggers finding in their referrer logs? Do we have access to the Apache site logs? What do people think about using this approach to work out priority topics to document?
Cheers, Mark
