What is Apache Forrest?
-----------------------

Apache Forrest is an XML standards-oriented documentation framework based on
Apache Cocoon, providing XSLT stylesheets and schemas, images and other
resources. Forrest uses these to render the XML source content into a website
via command-line, robot, or a dynamic web application.  For more details,
please see the website at http://forrest.apache.org/
