1)Can I bundle Cocoon with our company product and
sell it ?
Yes. Be sure to read http://xml.apache.org/dist/LICENSE.txt though.
2)Can I develop applications using Cocoon and make
money ?
I don't know, can you? :) If you make a good application that people want
to buy, cocoon won't stop you!
3)How can I be assured that Ill get support if I get
into some problem while working with Cocoon ?
MY ANSWER: there is this mailing list which helps you
24hrs a day unlike those companies which charge you
HUGE amounts,this is free peer-peer support.
As it was mentioned before, you aren't guaranteed anything from this list.
If you have a problem on a weekend for instance, you are probably less
likely to get an immediate response as i'm sure some folks only read the
list at the office.
4)Which version of Cocoon should i use in my company ?
MY ANSWER:Use Cocoon 1.8.2 bcoz there are many who
have used this and people have exhausted all the
possible problems with 1.8.2 and so quick help is
easily available from the cocoon-archives.
I'd recommend cocoon2. That is where all the development effort is going
and some really interesting work is being done there. Depends on the
projected lifetime of your project.
5)Can anyone suggest other possible questions?Some of
you might have already delivered seminars on Cocoon.
the Why use cocoon question. I got that here from the phb's.
6)Where is Cocoon heading towards ?Does such
technologies get recognition from the W3c.org and be
declared as Standards ?Can I say that Cocoon would
soon be declared a Standard?
probably not. I think cocoon lets you easily operate on your
standards-compliant-xml data, and makes its pretty easy to inter operate
with other systems via xml, but it isn't really a standard in and of itself.
7)Did anyone do any work using Cocoon+VoiceXml ?
I have not, but it is on the board as something to do down the road.
8)Are there any competing frameworks to Cocoon ?I
couldnt find any on Google.
There is AxKit (http://axkit.org) which is similar to cocoon1 but in perl.
I believe somebody posted about a similar java toolkit here in the past,
check the archives.
9)Does anyone of you have slides which I can use as
reference,apart from the slides that I make ?
There are some slides on the cocoon2 site that a developer from HP made
that gives a high level overview of cocoon2.
hope this helps :)
