Hi Everybody!

I want to use cocoon to create a webdav enabled webapp with a plugin
architecture and I just want to know which version to use. Should I go
for 2.1 or for 2.2? 2.2 seems like a more natural choice because it
contains OSGi support (so I have read), but maybe it isn't really
usable yet.

Unfortunately OSGi support is not going into 2.2. There was discussion and work toward doing so a while back but at some point that was removed from the scope so that 2.2 could be released sooner than later. OSGi support is IIUC still planned for a post-2.2 release. What you will get with 2.2 is a Maven-based build structure and a SpringFramework-based container, which are very nice features.

This project of is just going to be a proof-of-concept so I don't need
the stability of an officially released version. I have been reading
the Users and Dev archives now for a couple of weeks and it really
looks like 2.2 is going to be a huge step forward and it would be sad
to miss all the new and shiny features :)

What do you propose and/or what do you all use for your personal
cocoon projects?

Personally I've found 2.2 works just fine already, as long as you're not concerned about API/configuration stability. All my personal projects use Maven and Spring anyway so having Cocoon work with them natively is very nice.

For projects at work, though, I'm still sticking with 2.1.x since it's not acceptable to work against a moving target.
