--- <h1>Form Libraries</h1>
---
<p class="note">This feature is only available from the repository for the
Google Summer of Code (GSoC) by
<a
href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cocoon/gsoc/mpfingsthorn/forms/";>Max
Pfingsthorn</a> as long as it is not integrated into the current Forms
block.
</p>
--- <p>It is now possible to define libraries of form definitions and bindings.
--- Specific support for templates was intentially left out because of the
--- frequently changing and unstructured nature of it. Other tools, such as the
JX
--- Template Generator's import feature or a combination of the Include
Transformer
--- and XSLT will do a better job dealing with any template formatting
needs.</p>
+++ <p>This feature was first described in the wiki
+++ <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/CocoonFormsScratchpad";>here </a>and
+++ <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/WhiteBoardCocoonForms";>here</a>.
+++ <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/CocoonFormsLibraryProject";>Max's
+++ proposal</a> for the <a
href="http://code.google.com/summerofcode.html";>Google
+++ Summer of Code</a> is still available on the wiki as well.</p>

<p>One important feature of the library subsystem is inheritance. Form
widgets
and bindings can inherit their contents and parameters from others. All such
parent bindings/widgets will be referenced by IDs like so:</p>
