Just in case you are not aware there is also a bunch of other tool related code at jakarta/xml. Of those that I am aware;

anakia? all that xdoc stuff that does my head in. Or is that the same as forrest?
anakia is just a single ant task that uses velocity. More akin to xalan than forrest. However jakarta-site2/ has a bunch of xsl/velocity templates that are kinda similar in purpose to forrest.
I'd add that the xdocs in Forrest are very very similar to the ones of Anakia.
The most notable

It's really easy to use Forrest.
Just install it ala-Ant (ie make FORREST_HOME and put the bin dir in you path), then cd in the project dir and run
forrest
Simple as that.
There is a major feature though, that is that Forrest can be used as a webapp, in Tomcat for example.
So you can simply point to the live local site, and when you want to see the changes you doon't need to run a script to regen it all, just hit reload on the browser :-)
We are now working on embedding the webserver and adding editing capability in the browser, but that will be in some weeks time.
