I started a new plugin in the SVN Whiteboard: org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.Markdown " Produce output in <a href="http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/">Markdown</a> "mdtext" format. This enables use of Forrest as a tool for gathering input from various sources, and generate a consistent set of output documents. "
I won't be able to help much, but at least it is a start. -David
