Hi Jos! As you noticed, the 'alpha' status - which is related to APIs only, not software stability - is finally terminated, we are on the beta way, but the first beta release has not been released yet! If I recall correctly, core APIs you are interested on, have not changed, so your application should continue working with the new artifacts - problem would be they are still SNAPSHOTs... :S There is not an official plan, with roadmaps and deadlines, unfortunately, since no one of Cocoon developers has the chance to work fulltime on it, so it is currently maintained in our spare time - that's why there are times where activity increases, but sometimes is very low :P Just let us know if you need details about C3, we would be more than pleased to help you! All the best, have a nice day, Simo
