+          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. There are various core locationmaps in the main/webapp
+          directory, each plugin can utilise locationmaps, and projects can
+          manage their resources with a project-specific locationmap.
