Yes,
We would be glad to be listed on your powered by Cocoon page. Our base 
url is http://www.ctg.albany.edu. The entire site is done in Cocoon 2, 
using standard XML/XSL with a docbook schema for our XML documents. The 
site currently has close to 4000 pages produced by approximately 300 
xml/xsl files. We expect to be producing about 10,000 pages by the end 
of the year with no increase in the number of xml/xsl files. The main 
content of our site are the reports, guides and studies that our Center 
produces. We needed a sensible way to manage these documents, control 
the source file and produce a variety of formats HTML, PDFs, multiple 
locations on the site. XML and Cocoon has been the answer. The site has 
only been live for about 1 month, but we've already seen a doubling of 
our traffic and it's much easier to maintain and find our information on 
the site now. It's all Cocoon and XML/XSL; no database involvement.

We also have a white paper on the site at 
http://www.ctg.albany.edu/publications/reports/xml that explains our
rationale and approach to using xml and cocoon.

One other component of the site at 
http://www2.ctg.albany.edu/egovfirststop/ uses Cocoon 1 and mySQL 
database to power an information repository application. We will be 
upgrading this application to Cocoon 2.
