15 October 2004 - Apache Forrest 0.6 Released
Apache Forrest is pleased to release the new version: apache-forrest-0.6
http://forrest.apache.org/mirrors.cgi
Apache Forrest is an XML standards-oriented documentation framework based upon Apache Cocoon, providing XSLT stylesheets and schemas, images and other resources. Forrest uses these to render the source content into a website via command-line, robot, or dynamic application.

New features in this version include:
- Uses all resources in-place. No more copying to a separate build space and so no need to back-copy your changes.
- This provides workflow and productivity improvements.
- Project sitemaps get first chance processing, then pass-through to core sitemaps. This simplifies management of project sitemaps.
- Project sitemaps provide easy access to the power of Apache Cocoon.
- New skins use CSS rather than tables. Old skins are deprecated.
- Skins are configurable, e.g. with colours and optional features.
- DTD improvements, especially addition of ubiquitous class attribute.
- Forrestbot, robotic build and deploy, has been entirely re-written.

Apache Forrest is a publishing framework that transforms input from various sources into a unified presentation in one or more output formats. The modular and extensible plugin architecture is based on Apache Cocoon and relevant standards, which separates presentation from content. Forrest can generate static documents, or be used as a dynamic server, or be deployed by its automated facility.
