> It's time to burn down the forrest.  Apache forrest, which is used to generate the documentation for all three subprojects, has not had a release in several years (0.8, the version we use was released April 18, 2007), and requires JDK5, which was EOL'ed in November 2009.  Since it doesn't seem likely Forrest will be developed any more, and JDK5 is not shipped with recent OSX versions, or included by default in most linux distros, we should look to find a new documentation system and convert the current docs to it.
