Here's another metric: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cocoon-2.1.3]$ find . -name \*.xsp | wc 150 150 9546 [EMAIL PROTECTED] cocoon-2.1.3]$ find . -name \*.jx | wc 13 13 800 It appears that XSP, although folks are moving away from it, still does a lot of work in the Cocoon 2.1.3 distribution.

Is JXTemplate moving into the vacuum created by XSP then? Anyone else want to chime in? It seems to me to be the case if JXTemplate has been moved to the core (from the CVS log) and XSP is moving out. > And to answer your fears on your blog: The problem of XSP is the > implementation, not the idea.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at in the bug report, but I can see that there is no good way to validate XSP. Especially if you can inject elements from Java snippets. > BTW Woody is propagated to be used with Flow, but not bound to it. Woody is designed to be used with Flow, but not bound to it.
