We are interested in sharing with Forrest, if we have the same goals.
In fact, I allready contributed to Apache and I like the people  here.
It might happen that people here think that both projects would fit
together. I think so :-)

Correct - PIWI has stolen the best of Forrest and tries to make it as
easy as possible. I remember the time when I started to get into
Forrest. Or the time I tried to standardize Forrest as documentation
tool at my clients company.... hard work!

My apologies if I hurt someones feelings here. Forrest is a great
tool, and hopefully PIWI can exist as a sub-project or a sisterproject
at some time at apache.

cheers
