See also CocoonDocsDrafts for "rules" about how to work on this document.
We'd like to add tracks to the existing documentation on the Cocoon web site, to help users interested in specific parts of Cocoon to get up to speed.
The idea of a track is to provide a reading list (links to pages, technically) of documents that one should study to get up to speed on specific parts of Cocoon. The track itself will not contain any content, only point to existing content.
The main goal is to answer questions like "what documentation should I study, and in which order, to go from zero to being able to publish the results of database queries in PDF format?".
A secondary, but important goal is to show which documentation is available: tracks that have only a title but little content will show that information is still scarce in this area.
You might be a Master of one of the areas listed in the tracks plan below, or maybe you studied a specific Cocoon feature recently and would like to complete the plan? Please do!
See the About page if you're unsure about how to edit this page.
Also, make sure that the left part of this page displays "You are: <your name>" before editing this page, and if not set your name in UserPreferences. This is very helpful as it allows the Wiki to keep track of who wrote what.
Thanks for your contributions!
This is very rough for now - feel free to add sections and/or complete their contents. You can also use footnotes #1 to enter comments.

As with the database track, there are multiple approaches to choose from.
I'm just throwing this out as a candidate. I want to be able to use Cocoon pipelines from within my own application, rather than embedding it in a web server. I'm not even sure where to start looking, though. – ScottBrickner

These wiki pages need some major work. When finished, they need to be added to the main cocoon docs.
This document states that JFOR cannot be included within Cocoon. It is now included within Cocoon 2.1. Upayavira
