For my project I have used XSP to write actions. Advantages: - The is no need to do manual compiles. Cocoon will compile it when the source has changed. - The XSP can be stored in a location relative to a subsitemap instead of the WEB-INF directory.
It took me a while to figure out how to do it (almost no documentation and only a few entires in the mailing list archive). If you need some help, let me know and I'll post a summary.
