[xwiki-devs] Proposal for enhancement to XWiki Eclipse
by Pavel Petrochenko 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hi guys, I am not sure that this is right place to post it, but this mailing list looks like a good place for this post. Recently I have browsed to XWiki Eclipse web site it looked nice but after taking a look, I saw a place for collaboration here: During last year one of directions for my company(OnPositive Technologies) was developing of a good/mature true WYSIWYG Java framework for Wiki and actually arbitrary markup authoring. To the moment project is very near to first release and provides full support for Tract Wiki markup(Adding parsers for another kinds of markup is less or more trivial). So I suggest that integrating it to XWiki Eclipse may be a good fit. For more details about project please see the screen cast here: http://www.screencast.com/t/MDkzYzM4. P.S. Any comments/questions are very appreciated. Best Regards, Pavel Petrochenko OnPositive Technologies(http://www.onpositive.com).

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New XE 2.4 release dates
by Vincent Massol 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hi, Since we're way off for our release dates of XE 2.4 (we'll need to do a retrospective and understand what happened so that we improve ourselves for the next time), I'd like to propose the following new dates: Original Dates: - XE 2.4RC1: 28 June 2010 - XE 2.4 RC2 (if needed): 5 July 2010 - XE 2.4 Final: 12 July 2010 New proposed dates: - XE 2.4RC1: 7th of July - XE 2.4Final: 15th of July BTW just to be sure, from now on we should only fix bugs and be very careful about not introducing any risky things, in order to prevent forcing us to have a RC2 since we're short on time. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

IMO everything that is final and can be used for documentation should be on xwiki.org. On the other hand, I view incubator.myxwiki.org as a place where people can experiment and brainstorm. Lots of design proposal are not fully implemented, suffers changes or just remain at the proposal level, so they are not relevant for all the people. Also a reason I prefer that design proposals stay on incubator is to reduce the noise on xwiki bot on IRC. A proposal suffers many variations and they could flood the bot.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] [Vote] [Standard] Items Hover State
by Ecaterina Valica 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

Hi, In order to assure the consistency of visual elements, we need to have some standards. There is already some work in progress at http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Standards/ Things that mature and are final decided, will be added at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/UserExperience/ One of this proposed standards is "Items Hover State" Whenever we have multiples items displayed, the hovered item will be marked with $theme.highlightColor . http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Standards/HoverStateItems We already cover this pattern in most of the cases, but there are still some inconsistencies: - comments: only the header is highlighted; - attachments, colorthemes are not highlighted at all; - trees and WYSIWYG elements have a different color (I don't know if we can change this to use the color themes variables); - maybe others? Having a stardard for this kind of things it will be easier to know what elements are out of order, and what needs to be fixed in order to assure the consistency. Please vote for "Items Hover State" Here's my +1 Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Discussion] Gadgets in XWiki
by Anca Luca 09 Jul '10

09 Jul '10

Hi devs, Following the implementation of gadgets we'd need to discuss the approach of implementing xwiki as an open social container (also see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/GadgetIntegration#HXWikiasOpenSo… for the discussion). There are 2 approaches that can be used: Short story: Option A): open social gadgets are imported as xwiki macros (one macro for each imported gadget), the xwiki dashboard works with macros as gadgets, to publish the xwiki macros as gadgets we provide an automatic transformation of xwiki macros in open social gadgets XML definition Option B): dashboard accepts a single macro inside, the {{gadget}} macro, which will specify a reference to the gadget to display (URL to XML if it's open social, page reference if it's xwiki gadget) and the parameters, there would be a mechanism to automatically publish these xwiki pages as gadgets (to be used either by this {{gadget}} macro or by other containers). Long story (also discussing possible approaches for subproblems, and also containing some pros & cons): Option A) See http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/GadgetIntegration#HProposalA-Gad… Option B) See http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/GadgetIntegration#HProposalB-All… WDYT? Do you think there are other possible approaches that should be added to this list before the vote? What do you think would be more suitable? Some usage scenarios are documented at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/GadgetIntegration#HScenarios . Please, if you feel the list is not complete, contribute your usecases. Thanks, Anca
