Just so you PMC guys know what happened.
I got a response from the Korean guy that runs cocoon.apache-korea.org. This is what 
he said:

        Dear Arje Cahn
        I'm Keyseon, Min.
        I am a korean undergraduate studing Cocoon and I am managing 
        the site of cocoon.apache-korea.org. 
        .... >snip< ...
        I thought Cocoon Sitemap Tracer don't be brought to completion. 

(which is completely right :-) )

        .... >snip< ...
        The cocoon.apache-korea.org is translation site into Korean. I 
        hope to help korean developer or user use cocoon easily. The 
        cocoon.apache-korea.org is independent of apache.org up to now.
        .... >snip< ...
        I would like to contribute to cocoon.apache.org and implement 
        program continuously for the cocooner.

Sounds ok. I've suggested him that it would be good to donate the tool to the 
cocoon.apache.org group. 

On the other hand....
"I hope to help korean developer or user use cocoon easily"
That's an alarm bell ringing.

Which leads me to the following question: what about a "tools" department for Cocoon? 
I know there has been some talk of it, but what happened to it? Looks like Keyseon 
actually created a seperate 'tools' department, apart from the Apache group, that 
should have been inside the Cocoon site anyway.

Apart from that, what is the status of apache-korea.org?

Regards,

Arj� Cahn
