Okay i tried various ways to do that and now have one solution working. It would have been better get the cocoon-daisy-to-docs to process the Changes (since they belong with 2.1). However i cannot do that because the Forrest Daisy plugin seems to intercept everything and map it to Daisy. So the projectInfo plugin can't handle it. The top-level docs are now building the changes page by getting the status.xml file from the 2.1 branch svn. Not ideal, but it works. http://forrest.zones.apache.org/ft/build/cocoon-site/changes.html The problem is that that page will not be added to the 2.1 docs package, but at least we can update it on the website. -David
