Look back in the archives a bit, Andrew Savory used Cocoon rather a lot, and I'm assuming Mr Ray did a fair bit with it too back when he was working for Luminas - through those two I've played with Cocoon too, but not for quite some time.
I think I was mostly low-level rather than Cocoon hacking. Supporting deployments, markup and doing Cocoon-like things in python with 4xslt. Java still annoys the hell out of me, so I probably wasn't doing much core coding. To be honest, if asked what I did for Luminas Limited, I'm no longer sure. Either I was a waste of space or I've blotted out bad memories... any road up, it's probably better for everyone that I'm doing webmastering, MVC web applications, sysadmin and consulting for a different company now. I still think Cocoon's still a good framework if you've a suitable application.
Amusingly, I'm now relating some of the stuff I learnt about OAI to other library software and Luminas Limited taught me lots about how to run a business (and how I don't want one to run). I guess no learning is ever wasted.
Anyway, if you want Norwich-based Cocoonery, look at Luminas and friends. Which is I guess what's already said. Erm, where's the cancel mail button? ;-)
