Hi Cédric, We have a lot of alive and kicking deployments of our applications in many sites across the World. A lot of older 2.1.5 but we managed to migrate our most recent versions to 2.1.11 (and BTW removing most of the patches we had to apply to 2.1.5, painful but worth it). 2.1.11 proves to be a very stable platform for what we use it (XSPs with multiple output formats, i18n, currently removing the Flowscript used for our in-house pageflow implementation, as the last expensive-and-not-that-useful feature)
So you are not alone ;) Laurent -----Original Message----- From: Cédric Damioli [mailto:cedric.dami...@anyware-services.com] Sent: lundi, 22. mars 2010 20:23 To: dev@cocoon.apache.org Subject: [2.1] Is Cocoon 2.1.x officially dead ? Hi Cocoon community, Here at Anyware, we have dozens of Cocoon-2.1 based applications in production. We've hacked Cocoon a lot, so that migrating to most recent releases of Cocoon is not an option for us at the moment Cocoon 2.1 is a *very* stable framework, especially the core, but I recently came across a bug and discovered that, even if I provide a patch, there will be nobody to commit it, let alone release the next 2.1.12 maintenance version. Diving in the ML archives, I discovered than Carsten, the last 2.1 release manager, resigned from the job almost two years ago [1], and that nobody took over. So I'm wondering if someone around here was still willing to maintain the Cocoon-2.1 branch ? If not, I volunteer to do the job, as this branch is important for us, and I don't want to have to fork it in our own repository. Otherwise, do you have other solutions for me ? BTW, is there still many Cocoon-2.1 users around here ?
