if i want to use Forrest, I need to rewrite all my XML files.
As I was saying, I'm using the same techniques and principles, but only with my own XSL files.
And they are for a specific purpose, namely data reporting in a web page based upon a database
Plus, I don't know how Forrest handles data reports like mine.

Hi Ross,
I'm certainly willing to take a look at it. I will eventually
chose one (forrest, fins, ....)
I have another possibility outside cocoon, and that is using the
R language on my postgres database.
For now, I would like to go with Cocoon, if it is fast enough,
because I can re-use my existing xml descriptions of the pages
(the graphs are the same as the pages, but graphical)
Forrest may help here too since it is a Cocoon based application
(see below).
Hmm, I'm not so sure that Forrest will help me much. Forrest seems like a way to render content (xml, ...) into webpages.

All of that is rendered into a report which navigation (http://reports.ecseed.com) Mail me offline for username and password if you want to look

So, I guess Forrest is not what I'm looking for in this case.
Although I use the same techniques.
I'm sorry, I don't understand. You have an XML file and you need to render it as a report. That is *exactly* what Forrest does (as a website, a PDF, CSV, Spreadsheet or whatever you need).
However, I'm not necessarily advocating Forrest for your case, only mentioning that it may help. Whether it does or not is up to you, I don't know enough about your use case. What I can tell you is that I have a Forrest app reading content from live sensor readings in an RDMS and creating reports from that data, complete with graphs. I think that is what you are trying to do here.
Even if I have misundersttod your use case I believe you *will* certainly find the the Charts plugin useful since it contains everything you need to embed JCharts (a graphs/charting package) into a Cocoon app. Isn't that what you wanted?
