Gee, i am not sure what you are talking about Steven. Why do you think that a "blogging tool" is needed to do a simple publishing of news snippets? And why do you think that it needs to be a live webapp? We can still get prompt publishing using the current Forrest CLI generation of Cocoon xdocs. http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/changes.html Already has an RSS version. It is easy to get Forrest to do a similar thing to publish a specific page of news snippets. That does not equate to Forrest becoming a "blogging tool" and as far as i know it does not intend to be one (though Forrest does still have many dreams). --David
