HERE'S MY TRY:
Apache Forrest is a publishing framework that accepts
various input sources and transforms them into a unified
document collection strictly separating content and
presentation.
It is standards-based, employing Apache Cocoon and
a plugin architecture which makes it modular and
extensible.
Forrest can be used as a dynamic application,
to generate a static result or completely automated.

Brilliant work. I would only tweak the last sentence
to have better words than "static result" and the
"completely automated" seems to lose some of the meaning.
I agree (sorry little time at present so I can't make a suggestion).
What do others think? I reckon that we are getting close.
Minor point:
I read that the *output* strictly separates content from presentation,
thereby implying that the *input* does not. Whilst some input formats
blur this distinction (like OOo and MS Office for example) I'm not sure
we can claim to take a horrible mess of an input document and create a
nicely separated output.
