Our documentation is currently being generated using apache forrest (http://forrest.apache.org/) I think it works pretty well (using our own definition of 'well' of course :)
The trouble is, it apparently works only on forrest 0.5.1, since the support for something called 'antproxy.xml' has been removed (cant find when, from the changelogs) My inclination is to NOT move the build to the latest and greatest version of forrest. Having looked, I doubt it will be a trivial task, given that the learning curve in forrest is a difficult one... among other things I dont understand, apparently forrest now bundles its own version of ant (why on earth?) Further, forrest is not 1.0 yet, and the possibility of further incompatible changes is pretty high... we've already done a couple of rounds of refactoring of our documentation build process. I would therefore suggest that POI continue to build the documentation using forrest 0.5.1. Its just and extra click to download. We need to highlight this better in our own documentation of course. Therefore, if you have strong feelings about supporting the latest forrest version, now is the time to shout, and indeed, jump in and rewrite the build! Thoughts?
