Ok.

I have to agree on the documentation issue. This certainly hasn't approved and for usage of sitemap components I still tend to use the Cocoon2.1.x docs.

I do believe as well that Cocoon forms in combination with flowscript was state of the art back then but other frameworks are doing an equally good or even better job nowadays.

Cocoon is still my preferred tool to do xml transformations but if you want to build highly dynamic interactive webapps you might as well take a look around for other available options. But this is where Cocoon3.0 comes into play...

Instead of building your complete webapp with the Cocoon framework you can now choose your preferred framework (GWT, Wicket, -> http://java-source.net/open-source/web-frameworks ) and outsource the xml stuff to Cocoon3 by just using the Java API. Also check out Reinhard's effort for howto http://cocoon.apache.org/3.0/reference/html-single/index.html#wicket-integration

And I expect I'll make the switch to Cocoon3 over the next year because of this reason.

I totally agree with this approach: I personally see much of Cocoon's future in Cocoon 3. I am also considering to use it to build a REST interface for one of our projects in Italy: I'll keep the list updated about how this is going.

On the other hand the first implementations of XPROC are available which resembles a lot what cocoon has to offer...
