This is not a free source, but there are some good books available Cocoon: building xml applications (Mathew langham+Carsten ziegler - New Rider) Cocoon developer's handbook (Lajos Moczar+Jeremy Aston - developer's library)
Re: Where are the articles on writing Cocoon components?
I doubt that there is anything in the works on this. I remember running into this problem when I was first learning Cocoon. I had to go to the Avalon site to get basic lifecycle information (this is now at the Excalibur site). But I had to figure out what the point of cocoon.roles was on my own as I don't recall seeing any documents anywhere on that, although I believe Avalon does or did mention them a little. It would be nice if this could be done as part of trunk - the whole new container architecture including OSGi could use some good coverage. I could use it myself as I haven't really been following all the details of the changes that are being made. Ralph Berin Loritsch wrote: It seems that a huge hole in documentation exists on the site.

Since docs are under a big refactoring, perhaps the wiki can be a good place right now. People working in the documentation effort can tell you more. ;-) Best Regards, Antonio Gallardo.
