Great!  (And I can testify from personal experience
that it is *much* faster :>.)

Do you mind if I put something on xml.apache.org/news?

> Forrest (http://xml.apache.org/forrest/) is an XML standards-oriented
> project documentation framework built 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
> (see http://forrestbot.cocoondev.org), or a dynamic web application.
> 
> Status
> ------
> 
> Significant progress has been made in the seven months since Forrest 0.4.
> New features include:
> 
>     * 70%-300% faster, thanks to the new command-line interface in Cocoon
>       2.1.1
>     * Ability to generate a single PDF/HTML of the entire site
>     * New flexible tab/menu system [1]
>     * Numerous skin improvements, including Javascript-controlled menus,
>       handling of <abstract> and <version>, configurable mini-toc depth,
>       menu tooltips, and a new pure CSS variant of standard skin.
>     * DTD improvements (v11 replaced with v12, and v20 in development)
>     * Rudimentary Docbook support
>     * Wiki support [2]
>     * Improved PDF output
> 
> Under the hood, the monolithic sitemap has been divided into functional
> categories and logical layers [3], with the aim of making Forrest sites
> easier to maintain, and new features easier to add.
