For example, I lacked overview on how to use the cocoon.xconf and sitemap.xmap to actually link to a XIndice Webapp (which was running alone [proved by php ;)]). The doc says,
The XML:DB generators are currently unmaintained and going to be deprecated soon. Please use the XML:DB pseudo-protocol instead.
but what is the XML:DB pseudo-protocol, and which generator should I use to
do the access? Would I need a sitemap matcher?
With the XML:DB pseudo-protocol you are able to insert resources in the Cocoon sitemap as plain URLs (so you don't need a specific generator). The idea is to use something like
<map:generate src="xmldb:xindice:///db/addressbook"/>
More specific info:

And for more generic Cocoon information:

Yes, Cocoon still lacks organic documentation, but it's improving.
As per PHP over Cocoon, I won't get into details: this is not the right list and, besides, being a Cocoon developer myself I would be biased. :-) Use the one that fits you best.
