The constants defined in the Constants class starting with CONTEXT all refer to the Avalon component context. cocoon.context is the o.a.c.environment.Context class; it has no pre defined attributes, but as it is mapped to the servlet context, it has all attributes from the servlet context.
To add more confusion, there is a constant in the Constants class which points to the o.a.c.environment.Context object in the Avalon context (something like CONTEXT_ENVIRONMENT_CONTEXT). Now, this is all a little bit..ehm...messy, but it's the way it has been defined years ago.
