Both forrestbot and forrestbar are not in the whiteboard, they are in "tools".. I have been happily using forrestbot every week to publish the Forrest site, and i use it for a work-related site to efficiently publish two versions of the same site. I do not see any "stability" issues and i do not see any required new features.
