The problem is that forrest uses some pretty common property names which 
might conflict with what a uses already has in his build.xml

see
http://issues.cocoondev.org/jira/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=FOR-145

A solution I use at work is to create a ant macro for forrest that fork 
a new ant on forrest.build.xml

I will post a sample macro tomorrow from work.
