maven and forrest

Is there a maven plug-in for forrest? Or an easy way to integrate site
docs generated by both maven and forrest?

I like the structure of forrest for documentation and I'd like to combine
it with documents generated by maven.

maven project.properties documentation

Posted by Daniel Kehoe <ke...@fortuity.com>.
I've found it difficult to find online documentation about maven
project.properties.

There's a reference in the Maven directory layout document
(http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/maven/reference/dirlayout.html):
"This file can be used to override Maven default properties (defined in
${maven.home}/bin/driver.properties )."
I haven't found bin/driver.properties.

Googling for "Maven project properties documentation" gives links to the
directory layout document and an out-of-date document on someone else's
web site 
(http://www.ingrid.org/jajakarta/turbine/jp/turbine/maven/reference/properties.html).

Seems there should be a link from the Maven Reference Documentation page
and in the Maven directory layout document. 

Hoping this suggestion makes it easier for others to get started with
Maven.

Involves fiddling with the settings at:

http://jira.werken.com/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa

Then when you have an acceptable subset of the total issues, click on the
'XML' link to get an RSS view.  Forrest uses
http://issues.cocoondev.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?pid=10000&resolutionIds=-1&view=rss&reset=true

Actually, looks like there's a bug in the werken.com JIRA:

Fatal error in
file:/usr/local/jira-1.4.3/atlassian-jira-1.4.3/atlassian-jira-web/secure/views/navigator/navigator-rss.jsp
at line 1516: Reference to undefined entity "ΓΈ".

I'll submit a bug report.

Nope, though it's somewhere on my todo list, if no-one more Maven-savvy
jumps in.

As long as all tools produce XML, it shouldn't be hard to style them with
Forrest to get a common L&F.

Just curious: does 'the structure of forrest' mean the directory layout?
Isn't this configurable with properties in Maven?

I'd suggest: stick to Maven, and Forrest will (eventually) come to you.

PS, while I'm here: anyone up for a JIRA Maven plugin? :)  It's one tiny
RSS stylesheet..

Several people have mentioned this is possible from the forrest team.

I haven't been able to find out how this is accomplished from the forrest 
web site, other than invoking the ant scripts.

Nicola Ken Barozzi may know, as he has stated that "there is no 
technological reason why Forrest cannot include Maven-generated docs in 
the site".
