The Forrest team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Forrest
0.2.

Introduction & History
----------------------

Forrest is an XML standards-oriented project documentation framework
based on Apache Cocoon, providing XSLT stylesheets and schemas, images
and other resources. Forrest uses these to render the XML source content
into a website via command-line, robot, or a dynamic web application.

This is Forrest's first public release. Forrest was originally
envisioned [1] as a Sourceforge-like documentation management framework
for xml.apache.org projects. Eleven months later, Forrest is a much more
focused, generic system.

- All xml.apache.org assumptions have been eliminated: Forrest can be
used in any project.
- Forrest's cross-project goals have been put on hold while effort is
put into making Forrest a good single-project tool.


Status
------

Forrest is currently experiencing rapid growth, and this release is made
in the spirit of "release early and often". To quote from the release
notes:

This 0.2 release is believed to be stable, and is in use by many
projects (including xml.apache.org). However, forrest-dev explicitly
DOES NOT intend to maintain the degree of accountability and
backwards-compatibility intended for future 0.x releases. This 0.2
release is made primarily to meet user demand, to solicit feedback, and
to give the Forrest community a trial run in the process of Forrest
releases.


Downloads
---------

Forrest 0.2 can be downloaded in binary or source form from:

http://cvs.apache.org/~jefft/forrest/releases/0.2/

Please also take time to read the release notes:

http://cvs.apache.org/~jefft/forrest/releases/0.2/RELEASE-NOTES-> 0.2.txt

which contains important information about known bugs.


Feedback
--------

Thanks for your attention,


The Apache Forrest team
