Quite some people and companies I know are currently building Cocoon-based CMS and webpublishing apps, often charging considerable amounts for this kind of 'product'. Wyona of course serves as some kind of reference example (while they do so in open source, which is good). But if you look at the basic use cases of a webbased CMS, those also cover general functions as authentication, form-based editing, some workflow, session management etc etc... I agree webshopping fits in most people's head as some blueprint application, but integrating what we've got (Cocoon, Slide, Lucene, forms processing, authentication and (portal) publishing building a CMS could also become an aggregation of best practices, IMHO. </Steven> -- Steven Noels http://outerthought.org/ Outerthought - Open Source, Java & XML Competence Support Center [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
