Windows XP / Cocoon 2.1.11 / running inside Cocoon's build\webapp folder

As an elementary user of Cocoon, I am still have trouble dealing with the
sitemap and being confident with it. I'm always scared that I've messed up
some syntax. My ultimate goal is to do some simple selects to an Oracle DB
and put it on an Excel spreadsheet, which I feel should be really simple.
But before I get into the XML and XSLT, I simply want to design the most
optimal sitemap, and at the same time get a better concept of what's going
on with it. From what I understand, I need the file generator,
SQLTransformer, XSLT transformer, and HSSF Serializer. (If there is anything
easier that I do not know, feel free to let me know.)

Today I tried writing one from scratch:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<map:sitemap xmlns:map="http://apache.org/cocoon/sitemap/1.0";>

  <map:components>

    <map:generators default="file"/>

    <map:transformers default="xslt">
      <map:transform type="sql">
        <map:parameter name="use-connection" value="acuworld_test">
          <map:parameter name="show-nr-of-rows" value="true">
        <map:parameter name="clob-encoding" value="UTF-8">
      </map:transform>
    </map:transformers>

    <map:readers default="resource" />

    <map:serializers default="html">
      <map:serializer
           name="xls"
           src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HSSFSerializer"
           locale="us" />
    </map:serializers>

    <map:selectors default="browser" />

    <map:matchers default="wildcard" />

  </map:components>

  <map:pipelines>
    <map:pipeline>

      <map:match pattern="*.xls">
        <map:generate type="file" src="content/MYCONTENT.xml" />
        <map:transform type="sql">
          <map:parameter name="use-connection" value="CONNECTIONNAME" />
        </map:transform>
        <map:transform type="xslt" src="style/MYSTYLE.xsl" />
        <map:serialize type="xls" />
      </map:match>

    </map:pipeline>
  </map:pipelines>

</map:sitemap>

Am I on the right track? I just want to have peace of mind with the sitemap
so I'm not going back and forth between different files later trying to
debug my little application.

Any help and recommendations are appreciated. :-)
