With 'between' I meant .../resources/COB-INF/samples - sorry for my bad 
phrasing.

But looking at cocoon-deployer-plugin-demo it looks more like the following:
samples -> cocoon-<block>-sample/src/main/resources/COB-INF
WEB-INF/xconf -> cocoon-<block>-impl/src/main/resources/META-INF/xconf(?)
conf -> (? contain *.xweb, *.properties and other files)

I'm still uncertain about the last two directories.
Can you give me some more details (or pointers) which files and 
directories from the old blocks map to the new ones?
Once I have this information I can adjust the script to respect this 
information.


Thanks,
Andreas
