That is sad news. But all good things come to an end. Anyway even today I don't find any RESTful like framework that still got that versatility of defining woking URLs "methods" on-the-fly and extensibility like Apache Cocoon! I mean really 4GL framework..
But future has come and today we have 5GL frameworks that enables us to _define_ WHAT we want to achieve, not HOW. And this is the imminent future. But the concept of Pipelines that introduced Apache Cocoon will stay with us for a long time! That is absolutely BRILLIANT! And Henry Ford would be PROUD that Apache Cocoon was first of its style to implement that "feature" known from 18th decade Factories. Thank you guys for your involvement in this project. We are still using Cocoon at production and for a future time being we will be using it (over 15 years of development produced tons of code :) that is not so easy to "rewrite" or replace with something new :) Anyway Apache Cocoon made us survived the worst times and those good too - like a partner in marriage or a loving Son! :) We will definitely miss that kind of joy, happiness and professional career "enabler" :) Thank you.
