Info about the Cocoon "blocks mode".
From http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-cocoon-dev&m=113645993019371&w=2
The block mode is currently in a state of flux. You could use Cocoon in blocks
mode a month ago by running "./cocoon.sh blocks". That worked by making the root
Processor pluggable in the CocoonServlet and using the BlocksManager instead
of Cocoon.
To make that possible, I had to have a rather complicated initalization sequence
for the blocks. After the NG discussions I decided to simplify the architecture
by refactoring the block architecture so that the BlocksManager becomes a top
level servlet instead. And so that the ServiceManager and Avalon context
creation happen locally at the block level instead of globaly.
This is ongoing work and currently the blockmode is only usable from the test
cases.
