I agree entirely about these examples. Are you interested in helping? Either as patches to CVS, or sticking them up on the Wiki? We've got to start somewhere.Actually, the building was not really that difficult.. Like I said earlier, it was way simpler than my first go-round with PHP and make *shudder* I have only used CVS for cocoon.. I dislike building from source unless I *have* to.. and I was in big favour with making cocoon only a source dist.
What I think would help is not an easier build mechanism or binary dist, but some real world type examples.. think of a Cocoon area on hotscripts.com :P
Everyone seems to agree that building the samples gives you a good look at what is possible, then we all spent weeks or months getting what we wanted out of it.
I think some samples for simple, everday web site things, like guestbooks, forums, news, etc, would give them a reason to start off with converting their sites and keep em going past that initial "Arghh I know this is good" step. This stuff does not have to be java code.. I am doing a lot of these things with simple source-writing and xsl.
Don't get me wrong.. the Wiki is fantastic and I am snooping around in there almost everyday... but it is not really all that user friendly I don't think.
None of my comments are point out any flaws.. I just think cocoon is the
kickin' ass thing to come down the pipe since I dropped my chainsaw and went
geek :)
