Maybe if it were RELEASED....
From the cocoon.apache.org homepage:
Apache Cocoon 3
Corona was accepted by the Cocoon PMC to become Apache Cocoon
3. The Cocoon 3 website has more details. A first ALPHA release
will follow soon. [more]

[That is the LATEST entry in the News section.]
Download the latest version: Apache Cocoon Version 2.2.0
Some documentation that tells us a little more than "TBD" would also
help promote Cocoon.
I have what I think is still the latest book on Cocoon. It's from
2003. IIRC 2.1 entered beta while the book was being completed. It
has a whole chapter about Avalon, which you can hardly even find
anymore. It's still a godsend if you want to find out how Cocoon was
meant to be used.
For everyone outside the project, 2.2 hasn't quite finished happening
yet and 3.0 is just a wild rumor. People who built their products
around Cocoon feel abandoned. Nothing is happening. Bug reports seem
to be immortal -- even the ones with fixes attached.
Gee, why would Cocoon be losing its user base?
