Sure. What I meant is we shouldn't make any hard dependencies between
code releases and porting to Forrest until all the infrastructure-
related work is done and the migration path is clear and worked out.
This way, if the person with the expertise is suddenly unable to
finish the work, we won't be stuck with something half-done and
unable to move forward with the code base.

I propose we do it like this: do the initial port on the side and
then, when it is clear that the new setup can support all our use
cases go ahead with migrating the rest of documentation. While
this effort is underway, we can continue making new releases with
the old documentation system. If the initial effort fails for some
reason, then we have the old way of doing things to fall back on.

I've been updating Xerces-C++ documentation not long ago and have
a good idea of the tricky parts. I can create a list of files that
would be good to port to Forrest as an initial port.

Boris
