Is there any interest in having Forrest handle Maven documentation?
We (Forrest) have this and other things (asciiart to svg to image for 
example) since some time now.

Not that Maven should necessarily move to Forrest for documentation, but 
it can be a nice alternative. In fact I have already stylesheets that 
can render Maven docs in Forrest, so it would really not even change the 
current setups.

Leo Simmons has started a plugin for Maven but ATM there is no update.
Any takers for it? It sould also make a nice speed-functionality test 
between the Maven xdoc and Forrest.
