Any reason for 0.6 ? You would be better of start a new application with 0.7 version. Anyway ... > 1.

Anyone have it set up already and can send me some snips? http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/generators/directory-generator.html and you can probably find other stuff at wiki.apache.org/cocoon There are a couple of examples in Forrest cd forrest_06_branch/src/core/context grep directory *.xmap > 2.

Are you using a full Jetty as the servlet container for your forrest webapp. It can run cgi programs, so probably can Tomcat. I have never used the Cocoon ZipArchiveSerializer, http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/serializers/ziparchive-serializer.html but i gather that you would construct a pipeline in your project sitemap that generates an xml document in the format shown, then finish that with the serializer. -David
