Applying patches
Further to Davids recent "developers must help developers" email, can
I point out that recently some of us have been actively helping a
new contributor. That contributor has provided a useful patch to our docs in
direct response to our assistance and has identified a potential
problem in our FO stylesheets.
At this time I do not have a development version of Forrest on any of
my machines. Someone needs to apply this patch otherwsie all our
efforts are wasted.
Can someone please apply the patch supplied and thank the contributor.

Thanks for also prompting us committers. It would be
fantastic if we can get that patch queue down and
encourage those other developers.
