Dear Cocoon-ers,
Can somebody tell me where cocoon is heading after release 2.2 ? I
did not follow the mailing list for around a year, being back now I
am shocked by the recent announcement regarding cocoon 3 which seems
to me a complete break with what has been achieved so far - or have I
just missed something ?
Anyway — over the last few years there have been many discussions as
well as a couple of experiments in the directions of (a) making Cocoon
more lightweight (e.g. fewer dependencies, smaller memory footprint
and/or less configuration) and/or simpler (in design and/or usage),
and/or (b) just recasting the core concepts of Cocoon (e.g. pipeline,
sitemap etc.) into different forms to see what sort of system would
result and what it would be like to use.

That's my story based on my interpretation of the email threads I've
followed on the dev list over the last few years (especially recent
months), I hope it helps. Hopefully some developer(s) can chime in
here and let you know whether I've actually clarified things, or
muddied the waters even worse :-)
cheers,

Aren't these objectives part of Cocoon 22 also ? I though part of the
rationale for blocks was that
they are--beyond a small core-- optional and modular, you don't have to
have any you don't need.
So building a 'lightweight' cocoon App would be part of Cocoon 22
already. Or are the core
dependencies of 2.2 already too heavy a footprint ?
