I've spent some time looking at the forrest project website, mail archives and svn commit logs. I think what it comes down to is what we want here for the incubator is a "stable", or preferably "mature" tool, and forrest really is currently too much of a moving target (more deserving of an "alpha" or "beta" qualifier). Heck, it says so on the front page of their website. There is nothing wrong with that and it has little to do with "reputation", just with expectations which aren't very well-aligned with the "development mode". I'm not going to be "happy" until I have a site generation tool I can basically "forget about". The forrest front page says "Please realise that Forrest is still pre-1.0 release version. It is certainly usable for those who are prepared to move with it." and I think we don't want a moving target. I suggest the incubator moves to something else, and then when forrest hits 1.0 (or 1.1) we can re-evaluate.
