I think Alexander is talking more about sending the midlet data. Midlets are small Java programs that run on/inside your mobile phone. I guess Alexander wants them to communicate with a Cocoon based server - whereby Cocoon recieves data from the midlet, processes it and then sends new data back to the midlet. Alexander: Why not send the midlet data in an XML format?
