Yes and no.
The for:group-name will be matches later on in
{forrest-trunk}/main/webapp/resources/stylesheets/project2text.xsl
Here you find:
<xsl:template match="for:project-name">
<xsl:value-of select="$config/project-name"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="for:group-name">
<xsl:value-of select="$config/group-name"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
...and no <for:year />!
You would need to add new matches here if you want to extend the
functionality.

Yes and no.
Actually for project-name the match was on the project.svg which has
<for:project-name/>

You will need into the above xsl's and where we match them to really
understand what is going on. ;-)

An easy way would be (I had no time to test!) but it gives you the idea
(I hope ;-)):
a) extend the skinconf.dtd to allow and add to skinconf.xml:
<svg-stop>
<stop style="stop-color:white" offset="0"/>
<stop style="stop-color:lightgreen" offset="1"/>
</svg-stop>
b) change project.svg and group.svg and change:
<linearGradient id="gradient" x1="0" y1="0" x2="0" y2="1">
<stop style="stop-color:white" offset="0"/>
<stop style="stop-color:lightgreen" offset="1"/>
</linearGradient>
to:
<linearGradient id="gradient" x1="0" y1="0" x2="0" y2="1">
<for:stop />
</linearGradient>
c) change project2text.xsl and add
<xsl:template match="for:stop">
<xsl:copy-of select="$config/svg-stop/*"/>
</xsl:template>
This solution would change the project and group logo the same way. If
you want to have it different you need to do something like :
in skinconf.xml
<project-svg-stop>
<stop style="stop-color:white" offset="0"/>
<stop style="stop-color:lightgreen" offset="1"/>
</project-svg-stop>
...and change all above to match the new situation. ;-)

That is as well possible but will cost a wee bit much work.
