Then you might also be interested in http://www.why-compete.org/
and Aleader for "Situation Assessment". The "Manual" doc provides
background and the "Empathy Index" provides some examples.

Welcome, Reinhard!

It's good to hear that you have energy and time to invest in the 
forms/flow department, having good examples and docs will be a major 
step forward IMHO.

...Apart from Cocoon I'm on the way to become a Certified Transactional
Analyst.
 (this has nothing to do with IT as many people believe but
more with psychology)...
At first I though this was some (very) funny IT-related certification, 
but I know what you're talking of.
I'm sure the Cocoon mailing lists must be a gold mine to study for 
Transactional Analysis ;-)

Introduction Reinhard Pötz

[Reinhard Pötz]

I'm really moved by the vote and I want to thank you for the confidence.

I'm 25 years old and live in Vienna, Austria. I studied business
consultancy 
and graduated three years ago. Now I work as consultant for EFP
Consulting 
Austria and as freelancer (Cocoon consulting and training).  

The first time I came in touch with Cocoon was during the JAX2001 
(conference for Java, Apache, XML and WebServices) in Frankfurt. Used 
to use (released) commercial software I was impressed by the quality of 
open source *alpha* software (Cocoon was available in version
2.0alpha5). 
After this experience Michael Gerzabek and I started to build our first 
prototyp connecting Cocoon with SAP. This was also the hour of birth of 
Web3 which has been part of Cocoon 2.1dev since the beginning of this
year. 
Web3 has also become the basis of some of our projects.


On my Cocoon todo-list the top issue is finishing the flow (design & 
implementation) and I hope this can be reached within the next two
weeks. 
After this I want to spend some time on documentation espacially the
flow. 
The next big thing on my list is finding/finshing/promoting a/the Cocoon

form framworks that can compete against M$ webforms, JSF, Struts, ...

Apart from Cocoon I'm on the way to become a Certified Transactional 
Analyst (this has nothing to do with IT as many people believe but 
more with psychology), like to read, play tennis and learn to dance 
(waltz, cha-cha, jive, ... ;-)

Cheers,
Reinhard
