For the generator of the pipeline it should be possible to use any normal sling script, because they already run on top of the data (a node/resource) and generate a stream. If there would be a scripting engine capable of E4X, one could simply use it as generator. Regarding scripts for all the parts of a pipeline: For the other elements of the pipeline (transformers and serializers) the input interface is a bit more difficult as they will have to deal with an input stream. In Cocoon, these pipelines are based on standard SAX events, which is probably not that easy to "script". Regards, Alex -- Alexander Klimetschek alexander.klimetsc...@day.com
