If you want to create a WAR file, so as to include Xindice within Cocoon, for example, then you need to do something entirely different, which is not described anywhere on the site that I could find.

The problem is that we have currently two versions: - 1.0: official version; for end-users - 1.1b: development version; for developers

Many end-users are not developers but still want to use a version that is not targetted to them. That's where the gap (and frustration) is.

To use a development version, you should know how to :
- use CVS
- build with Ant
- install without an accurate documentation (and fix it)
- survive a constantly moving code
- deal with/fix bugs

if an end-user can't deal with these issues, he should stick with the official release. And if he has an interest in seeing the project moving forward, he can:
- learn the skills to use the development version
- write some documentation (we have a wiki-page [1] so that _everyone_ can contribute)
- sponsor a bug/feature
- ...
