ForestExtension question + wiki cleanup request

Hi,

We've been using Mercurial for a few months and it's working great, but 
now I need something like Forest to keep our build system repo in sync 
across the "main" repositories. Is that a good way to do it or does it 
cause more problems than solutions?

Also, when I read the wiki page I found a lot of ToDo-lines with more or 
less alarming questions and statements that someone has added:

http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/ForestExtension

A quick cleanup and update would be much appreciated, as I'm sure many 
of these additional statements are quickly settled. Is there anything I 
could to do help there?

Also, is Forest (the hg-crew compat version) usable in general? Ppl seem 
to be using it, but what are the snags?

Cheers,
/Marcus
