thanks JD, i'll try this first, then maybe Ivan's suggestion,
if i still don't have a solution necessary. (it's late here already)
I forgot to mention that the layout section in the
forrest.properties file shipped with cocoon 2.1.7 has
uncommented entries (unlike forrest) that don't point to the
intuitively appropriate paths under src/documentation (like
those in the forrest 0.7 forrest.properties do).
I tried adjusting them once, but didn't understand some
entries and it didn't seem to help. And cocoon seems to
build a "dummy" site first, populate it with part of the
overall build and then use that partial build for a complete
build (the "blocks" technique, i think).
Should i have to hack the forrest.properties file or any of
the *build.xml files?
