Berin Loritsch: The problem with Cocoon is that there are so many extension points and abstractions, you have a conceptual internal model that is as clear as mud.

This reminds me of Rickard Öberg's third principle for making software frameworks:
A framework's power comes not from what it allows, but from what it does not allow.

However I like the fact that for each problem there are always a variety of approaches and that Cocoon doesn't artificially restrict you to one "official" way. So that almost every day you learn something new, when looking at how other people solve a particular problem with Cocoon.

Last week I gave a Cocoon training to Andreas and colleagues and I'm impressed by the words he found to express similar feelings: After these tree days I have the feeling that Cocoon is like a big surprise box where you can take out presents as many you like and everytime you think now it must be empty someone else pulls a new present out of it.
