Hello, we are two of the students who work on cocoon-profiling.
Now that the implementing phase of the project has started we provided an initial patch [1] to add cocoon-profiling and cocoon-profiling-firebug to the code base. As of now the firebug component has no dependencies because we are not exactly sure what maven has to do in order to create a xpi file.
We created a prototype of the profiling component. An aspect is used to intercept method calls on relevant components. From here the control flow moves to an invocation dispatcher where specific handlers for components can be registered. A handler is responsible for creating the profiling data for a component. We'll store the data in a flexible hierarchical data structure but this is not implemented yet.
If you have any questions, suggestions or feature requests please let us know.

The week before the ApacheCon we've kicked off our second student project in cooperation with the Vienna University of Technology. The six students will work on profiling support for Cocoon (see http://cocoon.apache.org/3.0/student-project-ideas/cocoon3-profiling.html and http://cocoon.apache.org/3.0/student-project-ideas/cocoon3-profiling-ui.html) . Don't expect to much in the next couple of weeks because we will concentrate on the problem analysis first but as done in the last semester, as soon as we start to work on the actual problem, the students will introduce themselves and release their work regularly. If you have any thoughts that you want to share at this stage, just let us know!
