I now tested a fresh installation of Forrest-0.9 release.
It works fine for me.

Are you sure that you were connected to the network during the
first run of forrest? For the "site-author" docs, it needs to
download the specified plugins.

Regarding your comment above about the "plugins moved".
No, that is not how Forrest plugins work.
It finds each one in the "un-versioned" space.
So far IIRC, the only plugin utilising 0.9 version is the PDF plugin.

Explained here:
