I'm having problems getting plugins working. I was able to use it previously, but I can no longer even run `forrest init-plugins`.

Q: If it was working before, what have you done to make it stop working? A: I started making modifications to the ODT plugin's stylesheets. While testing I noticed it wasn't working. After searching the archives, I decided to try checking out a fresh copy from svn. Unfortunately (after changing $FORREST_HOME to point to the fresh svn checkout) I receive the same error.

The plugin is not defined in any of plugins descriptor file because it have never been deployed in the forrest site.

Correct evaluation (i.e. not in the whiteboard plugin descriptor file), wrong reason.
Right,

All plugins should appear in the descriptor file. These entries must be added manually at this time There is an issue to generate them from the plugin build information, I've done about 50% of the work towards this, but not found the time for the other 50% yet.
Maybe I can help on this, it's http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-532 but I cannot see your svn submissions...

Two solutions :
First the simple one :

    cd $FORREST_HOME/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.odt//
    $FORREST_HOME/tools/ant/bin/ant local-deploy

Second, much more complicated but no need of further local-deployment :
Define the plugin in a file of your choice (let's say MyPluginsDescriptor.xml)

Why not just add it to the whiteboard descriptor file?
Of course, but a commiter must do this.
BTW, we still miss several plugins declaration like org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.php and org.apache.forrest.themes.core.
Do I add them ?
