Re: [2.1] Is Cocoon 2.1.x officially dead ?

[Cédric Damioli]

Hi all, Now that I know that the 2.1 community is alive and healthy, I'll begin to send various patches I've collected during the last few years :-) First of all, may someone review and eventually apply https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-2286 ? It's a very small patch allowing users of serializers-block to start Cocoon from a directory which path contains spaces (such as "C:\Program Files") BTW, for the records (and eventually some "who use it" page), here at Anyware, we build an Open Source CMS around Cocoon 2.1, called Ametys (http://www.ametys.org), which is currently in its "3.0 beta" version, also leveraging JCR-Jackrabbit, Lucene and OSWorkflow. We currently have about 50 live systems, handling 20000+ web sites. So we'll continue to use and support Cocoon for many years !

If not, I volunteer to do the job, as this branch is important for us, and I don't want to have to fork it in our own repository....       I'm +1 on someone maintaining the 2.1 branch and cutting releases as needed. I don't use Cocoon anymore, but some of the projects that I created with 2.1.x a few years ago are still running very well and maintained, though more at the application level where they probably don't need changes to Cocoon itself. I think 2.1.x is stable enough for people who use it to stay on that version, so maintaining it makes at lot of sense. Are there any current committers willing to help maintain it?     Yes, i will play a part. I can certainly help with the release process. I have tried on various occasions to apply some of the outstanding patches, but had difficulty. It would need the help of others.   I still have a pretty good memory of Cocoon 2.1.x internals, and can help to review/apply patches. But I can't do any test on a real world application, so will need help from the user community before we can make a release.
