After analyzing the old blocks in more details I found the following 
common directories.
It would be great, if you (or someone else involved in developing the 
new blocks) can finish the mapping below ...

WEB-INF/sitemap-additions -> ? (contains sitemap snippets in *.xconf files)
WEB-INF/xconf -> cocoon-<block>-impl/src/main/resources/META-INF/xconf?
conf -> ? (contains *.xweb, *.properties and other files)
java -> cocoon-<block>-impl/src/main/java
samples -> cocoon-<block>-sample/src/main/resources/COB-INF
test -> cocoon-<block>-impl/src/test/java


Thanks,
Andreas
