When doing it I've realized that in page http://forrest.apache.org/pluginDocs/plugins_0_90/index.html most of plugin links (including the feeder plugin) are pointing to 0_80 docs. I've done a patch for the current revision of trunk, r832303. The patch has to be applied to feeder_dir/src/documentation/content/xdocs/index.xml I also dowloaded the current official release tarball for linux but I cannot find the plugin sources there. So I've not pached it for the 0.80 version. Vicent :: Share what you know, learn what you don't
