It was difficult to get into it without reading and understanding lots of docs. It would be great if forrest could be used within short time. If you would start to make forrest to what i have expected- a lightweight framework (easy to learn and easy to handle) for publishing my website (static- or in php code maybe) i would be really glad. In my dreams, someone can "learn everything needed" with 1 hour reading docs. In the second hour he/she can publish a website with everything needed. Maybe a experienced forrest'er or cocoon guy can do this, but for me it was try/error, reading, pain and at the end i decided to do this when i have more time. > Then we scale down development on the 1.0 branch going into maintenance > only. Therefore this new development would be a new 2.0 trunk (yes, new > trunk as in we have none of the existing code in there by default). Why not make up a forrest-sandbox module and write a prototype first? You could see if there are any contributions or how the feedback is. At the other hand, development can start right now.
