AFAICT there is not much work left to get a first beta release out of the door. The only issue that I know of is that the reloading classloader doesn't work which would be important to get it fixed. Does somebody have time to look into this problem?

Then we could release

 - cocoon-core
 - cocoon-bootstrap
 - cocoon-template
 - cocoon-deployer-plugin
 - cocoon-22-archetype-webapp
 - cocoon-22-archetype-block

I would like to see those modules released *before* the ApacheCon. Does anything speak a release on Monday (June, 19th)?


Yes, most samples are currently not working and this includes the
template block

yes, I looked briefly into the issue but haven't found the cause. IIUC the list cocoon.parameters contains the values instead of the names.

- I wrote an email last week (or the week before), but
got no reply for the problem at hand.

So, imho we should try to get most samples working - it's not necessary
that all samples work, but there should be more working samples than
failing ones. So as long as this is the case, I'm -1 on a release.

which samples are failing?

In addition, I would like to have a support for paranoid classloasding
in the deployer: controlled by a property the deploy could rewrite my
web.xml and add the paranoid servlet, listener and filters. Now, I could
come up with the code for rewriting the web.xml, but have no clue how
and where to add this in the deploy code.

yes I agree but we shouldn't delay a release just because of this missing 
feature.

I will give more detailed advise about where you can add your code ASAP.

Finally :) how to we do the actual release? We have to take care of
legal aspects as well, like adding all licenses of the uses dependencies
etc.

I don't think that we should only provide Maven artifacts for our first release, nothing more. Getting out a "perfect" sample distribution (which only has demo purpose - people should *never* use it as the base for their own projects) could take ages ... and I don't want to wait for it.
