New features in this version include:
-* Locationmaps define the mapping from requests to locations,
-which enables content and resources to be located at various
-different sources. The advantage of this is that the URL seen
-by the user need bear no relation to the location of the source
-document, thus Forrest can separate the client URL space from
-the source document URL space. Thus, using the locationmap
-it is possible to pull together documents from many different
-locations into a single uniform site. In addition, since the
-user URL space is now unconnected to the source URL space it is
-possible to move source documents without breaking any existing
-user links.
-
-* Existing core plugins and sitemaps have been refactored to
-take advantage of locationmaps. Some core functionality has
-moved to plugins.
-
-* Prototype of new xml-based properties system. Projects and
-plugins can use a forrest.properties.xml file. At this stage,
-it supplements the existing forrest.properties file.
-
-* Some new documents to explain certain core aspects.
-Documentation menu navigation changed to provide clearer
-structure for Forrest project versioned product documentation
-grouped into howto and background sections. Better layout of
-the Developers tab into Getting Involved, Resources (mail lists,
-SVN, Issue Tracker) and Best Practices sections. See also the
-"linkmap" for an automated Table of Contents ability.
