[xwiki-devs] [IDEA] Remove Bundled applications from the Recommended definition
There are several applications that are listed in the Recommended extensions, but meanwhile they were bundled in Platform. According to the Definition of a Recommended Extension [1] they should be not removed from the Recommended list. Examples of applications: - CKEditor - Help Application - Templates Application - Menu Application - Tour Application - Syntax Highlighting Application Maybe we kept them to promote them or because we forgot. Also there is no list on e.x.o with the bundled applications. Would that be useful? Still kind of hard to differentiate between user related applications and very technical bundled applications. Let me know what you think, Caty [1] http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ExtensionCode/RecommendedExtensio...

+1 from me. Also note that AFAIK Marius is going to send a proposal real soon now about removing the concept of Recommended Application and replace it with a concept of Highlighted Application (or something like this). Thanks -Vincent

Actually what you said not correct. This is not the definition at http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/ExtensionCode/RecommendedExtensio.... It only talks about excluding extension "not bundled by default in the base XWiki Distribution”. There can be several Flavors and not just XS. This is why we kept those.

Changing it to -0. I think we need to wait for Marius’s proposal anyway. Thanks -Vincent
