The Cocoon directory structure isn't very concise: many directories with the same or at least similar names at different locations, some directories with non-intuitive names (e.g. lib/endorsed: why endorsed?).
I can't agree. Cocoon 2.1, which you are probably using, has a quite simple directory structure. Not everything might be obvious on the first sight, but you might ask more specific questions to get it explained.
The endorsed dir you refer to is nothing Cocoon specific, but a general Java 1.4 problem with XML libs: http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/EndorsedLibsProblem.
If there's a problem I don't know where to look, I don't know where to place my files, I don't know which parts are superfluous and and and...
There is some documentation available to get started. Furthermore you can have a look into the block structure and adapt one, especially the tour block, which introduces the most important ones: http://cocoon.zones.apache.org/demos/release/samples/blocks/tour/intro/docs/index.html (also available in your local installation). Later one you should not integrate your code into Cocoon's build, but integrate Cocoon into your build.
