(While this announcement is not strictly about a Cocoon project, I think it is relevant one-time information for many Cocoon users. Please read on if interested!)
Dear Cocoon users,
Orbeon is proud to announce the open sourcing of the entire code base of our Presentation Server product, formerly known as the OXF Platform. The project is now hosted on SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/orbeon/
The Orbeon Presentation Server is an MVC Framework for building Composite Web applications from XML sources using XForms. While similar to Apache Cocoon, the Orbeon Presentation Server benefits from richer declarative controller semantics, standardized forms processing using W3C XForms, and tight integration with XPL, a full-featured pipeline processing language for XML. A comparison matrix with Cocoon is available here:
http://www.orbeon.com/community/cocoon
(Please keep in mind that it is difficult to keep such a comparison matrix up to date. We therefore welcome additions and corrections, as we have in the past.)
Presentation Server is a major component of the open source, XML-based Orbeon Integration Suite (OIS) we are currently working on. Other open source components well under development include:
o Studio, an eclipse-based integrated development environment (IDE) currently targeted at helping developers using Presentation Server to build XML-based web applications.
o XML Server, a server-side XML processing engine based on the Orbeon XPL Engine, a mature, high-performance engine for pipelined processing of XML documents
For more information about the Orbeon Integration Suite, please visit:

We invite interested people to download our stable 2.5.3 release from SourceForge and to join our mailing-lists!
Regards,
-Erik
