Hi xwikiers,
I just introduced a "Project" extension type on http://extensions.xwiki.org.
I needed a place to put a few words about OpenId Connect in general, the goal of the project, the various modules and what is common between them, etc. It's also the parent space of the actual extensions. It does not shows up in Extension Manager of course.
See http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/OpenID+Connect/
WDYT ?
As a user I don’t think I’ll understand what “Project” means. Actually even as a dev, I don’t really. I guess you mean it as a container for other extensions.
All those extensions are part of the same project, released together, have the same bug tracker et source repository so "even as a dev, I don’t really" might be a little bit exaggerated :)
I think “Group” would make more sense.
"Group" could be usefull for other use cases but it's really not strong enough here. The goal is not to group some random independent extensions but to document a project which have a goal and produced various installable extensions to achieve this goal.
Also I prefer to keep "group" for a group of extensions to install, i.e. you install this to get several extensions. Here this is something you cannot install, this is documentation.
WDYT?
In any case, we need a legend somewhere to explain the types.
Thanks -Vincent
