document the new properties system
Should we document the start of the new properties system?
I know that it is still prototype, but we need to encourage
developers to use it.
There some already some vague mentions of it
in our changes.html
Some plugins are already using it:
]$ find plugins -name "*properties*.xml"
plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.projectInfo/default.plugin.properties.xml
plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.projectInfo/forrest.properties.xml
plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.Text/default.plugin.properties.xml
As well as whiteboard plugins:
Daisy, dispatcher, NoteTaking, solr
And Dispatcher uses it in:
main/fresh-site/forrest.properties.xml
main/template-sites/basic/forrest.properties.xml

I should have pointed out that the system is reasonably well documented
in the issue tracker and archives - so if someone does tackle this you
should start there.

Yes, but not at the expense of actual code things for the release
(unless someone has the desire to document it of course). We can update
documentation after release.
Which reminds me, we need to discuss what is going in the release package.
