It's scary to me in two ways: 1) there is so much code that it is

vulnerabiliities (something my customer requires), and 2) code size is
an hint of the complexity (richness?) of Cocoon/Lenya and hence the
difficulty in mastering it.
I may have miscounted some files, and everyone's configuration is
surely different. On another system, with fewer Cocoon blocks turned
on, I counted:
Lenya: 459 *.java files in the src directory, and 429 in build.
Cocoon: 2448 *.java files in the src directory, and 0 in build.
Don't misunderstand me, I'm a big proponent of both Lenya and Cocoon.
They are both remarkable in many ways. But as others have said
elsewhere -- particularly about Cocoon -- their size and complexity
have probably hindered their popularity.
very much agreed. I also would wish a light (really light weight)
version and the same is true
for Lenya. The problem is that these things grow historically. Another
thing is backwards compatibility.
I think one has to live with this and accept that this will always be
the case, but we can develop strategies
and do something about it. For instance I would like to modularize Lenya
into different components and show
that "physically" by using different directories or some kind of
"dependency registration".
Any other suggestions are very welcome.

Just for kicks, I ran a little program of mine that counts lines of
source code (excluding blank lines and comments) against the .java
files in the Lenya & Cocoon source. Here's what it says:
Cocoon 2.1.7 *.java: 2,399,544 lines in 2454 files
Lenya 1.2.4 *.java: 1,091,217 lines in 1002 files
Hi Bob,
In Lenya 1.2.4 I can find only 450 java files.
Could it be possible that you also counted the files in the build
directory?
Anyway thanks for the numbers, it's interesting.
Josias
Of course, this doesn't include the java source of all the jar files
that Cocoon ships with. (And everybody has a different way of
counting SLOC, so these should be considered ballpark totals.)
These numbers are very scary.
