Cocoon 2.2 uses Maven and already provides a neat infrastructure to 
build Cocoon applications using Maven [1].

The basic design of the Lenya 2.2 branch is IMO not too bad. It 
leverages the modularization features of Maven and Cocoon 2.2. Modules 
are implemented as Cocoon blocks. We invested quite a lot of work, but 
there are still lots of open issues (details of inter-module 
communication, fallback mechanism etc.).

But I'm not sure if it's worth figuring out all those things. I have the 
feeling that we could get rid of large chunks of the codebase and 
replace them with existing products. I still think it makes sense to 
start with a clean slate for Lenya 3. Of course we can reuse existing 
Lenya modules if appropriate, but that should not be the primary concern.
