As an aside, just how easy is it to modify Forrest content? I'd hope it is as easy as anakia.
Basically the same.
But hopefully easier to setup. Having to checkout velocity or jakarta-site2 just to build the xdocs in commons has always irritated/confused me.
Currently Forrest has to be downloaded and installed as Ant is. The fact that we don't yet have a release will mean getting it from CVS, but we'll cut one in a week or so.
That means unpacking, setting FORREST_HOME and adding the bin dir to the path. And that has to be done only once for all projects. Bandwidth is not free...
Anyway, suggestions on how you would want it to work are *highly* welcome, since we want it to be easy to use.
If it's intended to be run like ant/maven, then a jar I download and set
<PROJECT>_HOME is fine.
Yup.
As I can't download jars for license reasons I except grabbing a zip and pulling the jar or structure out. Is there a nightly build available? [I don't mind building from cvs-source, it's just not the java-user way]
Errr, not that I know of (yet). I'll make sure we make on ASAP.
It sounds easier to use than the xdocs already though :)
BTW, there is already a Maven plugin if you are
interested, but it's out of date.
It will make it possible for Maven users to use it without needing to install it indipendently, although I still recommend it since it reduces the overhead that MAven gives (as small as it can become).
Jeff Turner will update it ASAP next week maybe.
If you wanna help him out, it would be great :-)
