> The XMLBeans site is built with Forrest 0.5, which is two versions ago. The site \
> should be upgraded.  I'm attaching files that support the upgrade. These files \
> build on version 0.7, the latest Forrest release. In addition, there are changes in \
> these files that represent a few other suggestions that I hope will make the site a \
> little cleaner to look at, a little easier to use. Here's a list of the changed \
> files (only changed files are attached with this bug): M      forrest.properties
> ?      src/documentation/sitemap.xmap
> M      src/documentation/skinconf.xml
> ?      src/documentation/content/xdocs/overview.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/sourceAndBinaries/index.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/site.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/samples/index.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/community/index.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/index.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/tabs.xml
> M      src/documentation/content/xdocs/documentation/tutorial_getstarted.xml
> Here's a summary of the changes:
> - Upgraded to Forrest 0.7. Most of those changes were to skinconf.xml and \
>                 forrest.properties.
> - Added a sitemap.xmap so that Forrest knows what to do with TGZ and ZIP files \
> (i.e., nothing) and so that it wouldn't attempt to wrap all of the static HTML in \
> the site skin (having it all consistent is nice, but it makes build time very long \
>                 indeed).
> - Removed the Project tab and moved its content to the Community tab. There wasn't \
>                 much on the Project tab.
> - Added items to tab menus that were on the tab page, but not on the menu.
> - Removing a reference to v2 as a project in progress.
> - Moved the overview info from the home page onto a separate overview page linked \
>                 from the home page.
> - Added the top news item to the home page, with a link to a more complete News \
>                 page.
> - Added a Getting Started section to the home page with suggestions for places new \
> users can jump in. Other minor visual changes (the color scheme is largely the \
>                 same):
> - Changed the skin to "pelt"; the old "forrest-site" skin is deprecated. 
> - Tweaked colors a bit to achieve the following:
> - Remove tab look for tabs that aren't selected so that the selected tab isn't \
> upstaged by the others. I think this helps to unclutter the top of the page so that \
>                 site users can focus on the content beneath.
> - Used a single color for the selected tab text and the "hover" color for all menu \
> item links and unselected tabs; hope this helps to pull the navigation together a \
>                 bit. (I used a color similar to the one the existing site uses.)
> - Moved the Search box to the bottom of the menu. At the top of the page it \
> obscures the logos and tabs there when the frame is narrowed. Most of the menus \
> aren't so long (even fully expanded) that the box is pushed off the page.  Issues:
> - I can't figure out how to get the menus to be expanded by default. Anyone?
> - Would really like to see the site have a different logo. I've got a few ideas. I \
> may send something along.
