Not sure if you are speaking for the dev team here?

No, that was my opinion.

What exactly does "kind of  obsolete" mean - has it
been deprecated, or is it still a valid component in 2.2?
Or is there is some other meaning?

I'm not a native English speaker but I think "obsolete" is exactly what I want to express: It's still there, you are free to use it, but you don't need to since there are superior ways to do it like the DAO support provided by Spring. I did not intent any additional meaning than that (like deprecation).

I agree with Boris. In Cocoon 2.2 the database block is kind of obsolete. An application should rather be developed with more standard means as provided by Spring. Cocoon was never very good at integrating database stuff.

I know, cocoon is based on spring. But isn't there another possibility with cocoon blocks only? There is this database-block. What it is good for, when I have to write my own spring application? I want to write as less code as possible.

Johannes -- you may want to search for tutorials on using databases with
Spring.  My understanding is that with Cocoon 2.2 it is best to have
Spring configure and manage any database connections.  Then you can add
Cocoon features (eg, the SQL transformer or whatever) once that is set
up.
