We have plenty of documentation. The API is described here: http:// 
cocoondev.org/daisydocs-1_5/repository/interfaces/153.html

The ugly part of such integration efforts however tends mostly to be  
stuff like authentication and underlying protocol handling. Plus the  
fact that Daisy documents are typically more complex than what other  
content repositories support (i.e. parts/fields/variants/versions).
