Dspace (prior to version 7) used Cocoon 2.2, and enhanced its
functionality, for instance, integration with Lucene SOLR. Look for the
XMLUI section available from:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/releases/tag/dspace-6.4
Release Notes:
https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC6x
I always continued to use Cocoon version 2.1x, and am hoping to use LLMs
to help me refactor some of its code. I am not a JAVA developer. There
were a few old code samples many (many years) ago adding some java
classes, which I believe were never fully integrated into 2.13.
I still love 2.1x, and would like to see better html parser cleanup than
jsoup/niko, hardening security issues, and wow, if the python integrator
package could ever be upgraded, that would tie in nicely with the wide
use of python language.
Cocoon pipelines are awesome.

It does seem as if multiple people claimed to still be using Cocoon,

Why not bring exactly this back to the upstream project and join
forces in maintaining it?

Hi,
Sadly, there's not enough motivated individuals to keep the project
running as is.
When we ran a poll 10 months ago, very few people actually
volunteered to help keeping Cocoon 2.3 alive, and the reality of
these past 10 months is that nobody has barely done anything to move
forward.
Anyway, now that the Attic vote has passed, we have to move forward
with the due process.

Hmm, good question actually. I wasn’t aware that the PR
functionality was actually really used to add enhancements to the
project and I always felt a little bit lost with the
formal/administrative rules to get patches to the project,
without being an official committer.
Anyway I would be willing to add all necessary changes to make
cocoon compatible with spring 5+ in a PR
Cheerio,
Gabriel

It is sad, to let such a powerful project die. Having said
that, we are using it still in production and trying to apply
security patches on our own fork to make it compatible with
newer versions of spring and java.
If the project would continue on github, I can just stress
again that I would be very happy to participate and share all
our patches.
Can you explain why you didn't via https://github.com/apache/cocoon ?
Just trying to understand whether github would really make a
difference.
While I am still +1 for the attic (because I don't see anyone
working on Cocoon in any form),
it feels a little sad if there are individually maintained forks
that could as well be part of the project.
cheers,
Torsten
