want to use a wiki
Hello,
The documentation says that Forrest has some wiki support, but I can't
find anything on how to get rolling. I would like to have a wiki for my
project, and have it linked to from within my pages (built with
Forrest). Could someone help me out with this? I have been taking
notes as I use Forrest to build my development site, and I plan to write
a tutorial based on my experiences with Forrest. It would be nice to
have a complete section on how to integrate a wiki with forrest. Thanks
for the help!
Best,
Bob

JSPWiki works nicely:
http://wiki.cocoondev.org
Forrest supports the JSPWiki format, but not interactive editing:

Thanks for the help. I think you are right, because I DO want to have
full wiki editing. Do you have a suggestion for a good wiki to use?
There are so many. I have only used PurpleWiki before and would gladly
take suggestions on others. Thanks again.
Best,
Bob

http://xml.apache.org/forrest/wiki-sample.html gives a description of how
to wiki format that forrest can parse. Simply save the files with a
.cwiki extension. However, this is simply a wiki source format, not a
true wiki. You cannot edit the files on the fly and the standard
interwiki page linking does not work.
For your case, it sounds like you should set up your wiki seperate from
your forrest site and link between the two. Don't forget to exclude the
wiki urls. http://xml.apache.org/forrest/faq.html#ignoring_javadocs
