I'm now in the process of adapting the XQuery and XSLT from the Cocoon-based site to create static versions of the pages, and I'm making steady progress. One issue is that I'd like to avoid the use of the custom Java collation for sorting, just for the sake of simplicity, so I'm wondering about implementing the same thing in XSLT; it may not be worth it, though. We've been having discussions with PS about how the redesign might work, and I think the best approach right now is to generate something similar to what we have, and implement the JS-based search functionality, then worry about the actual design when PS has some more time.
