Hi devs,
We need to define a strategy for better handling translations. I've
had a call with Guillaume and Jean-Vincent and here's the process we'd
like to propose:
* One person is in charge of http://l10n.xwiki.org/. This means
monitoring the work there, coordinating validation of key values and
ensuring validated translations are incorporated in the source tree.
Guillaume is willing to take that role for now.
* The XE release manager has the responsibility of taking the
validated keys on l10n.xwiki.org and committing them during the
Milestone 2 dev (before the RC1).
* The l10n manager should ping the release manager whenever there are
translated and validated keys ready to be incorporated or if there
have been important changes to be included in the release after M2 has
been released.
* The l10n manager should test XE and the applications after the keys
have been applied to ensure quality. Basically the l10n manager is
responsible for the quality of translations in general.
Here's my +1
Thanks

Hello,
I am working on creating blog entries using xwiki. I was wondering if it would be possible to create a template for the blog entries so that they will be more structured?
Thank you for your time and help!

Hi,
Since I'm rewriting the new Rendering component
(see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewRenderingArchitecture)
, we need to finalize the new syntax we want to have.
Right now I'v planned to use the same wiki syntax as now
(http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/
XWikiSyntax#HTextStyles) with only one change: all macros now need to
be closed.
For example: {macro}...{/macro} and {macro:text|param=value|.../}
Is that ok with everyone or do we want to make changes?
Thanks

Hello XWiki developers,
can someone explain me what is the strategy to define the mime-type of
an attachment?
I see not configurable map nor any setter on the attachment types.
Is there any way I can enrich this or is it simply taking over the
mime-type provided the browser (which, too often, ends up being
application/octet-stream) ?
thanks in advance

Hi devs,
I've implemented support for Google Gadgets for pages and for panels.
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Gadgets/
It is possible to browse the Google Gadget Directory and select a
gadget, set it's parameters and either:
- insert a call to a gadget macro in a wiki page
- create a panel with this gadget
It's basically working, except for a few Gadget translations issues in
the gadget settings page (for some gadgets).
To integrate in XE this requires:
- a slight modification to the PanelClass and the displaypanel macro (to
support a gadgeturl and gadgetprefs field)
- a few pages including a Gadget Groovy page (which requires programming
rights)
I think we should transform the Gadget Groovy to a plugin to avoid the
need for programming rights.
We can also from there create a special page type to make a display of
gadgets or panels like iGoogle or NetVibes.
It would store gadgets or panel lists in a special class with some
position parameters. And with some JS we can reposition the panels or
gadgets and save the config in the wiki page.
This would be an easy way to make some portal like experience in the wiki.
Who wants to takeover this from the dev team ? Do you think we can have
this in 1.8 ?

Hello,
I am Keerthan Muthurasa , Msc Software Engineering student at Oxford Brookes
University , I am interested on
doing a project for xwiki.
I would like to discuss about my ideas for the "Import Export from any other
Wiki Project" and if you could in return give me your opinions
that would be really helpfull for me.
This is the project requirement :
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Import Export from any other
Wiki<http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/ImportExportfromanyo…>
Create a extensible framework to import export data between wikis. This
should handle converting the data in the pages including
links between pages and metadata as well as direct access to the data
through either a web service (prefered) or database or the
file system
The system should at least for MediaWiki and Confluence in import mode
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I will begin with some questions:
* What does it mean when talking about converting links between pages ( we
are talking about converting internal links in the source wiki isn it ?,
That's mean when importing or exporting data we should think about exporting
or importing the linked data as well in order to keep an integrity).
* What does it mean when talking about exporting metadata ,direct access to
data through either a web service or database or file system ?
Here my idea for the project , if I can have some feedback it would be
helpfull for me:
When exporting or importing data from a given wiki to a destionation
one
Setp 1: get rid of all specific synthax proper to the source wiki
and retrieve data,metadata, and other usefull information.This can be
achieved
using a kind of parser whose job is to scan the source
page and reconize the specific synthax and only retrieve proper
data.Concerning encountered links ,we should
convert theses pages as well but we have to be carefull
when cross linked ( for instance we are converting page A and A links to B
but when
converting B ,B links to A).
Step 2: adopt a datacentric approach to properly store data in a
such a way that is easy to retrieve them.We have to be carefull when storing
data
since they have to keep the original pages structure.
Step 3: use previously retrieved data to create the result page in
the destination wiki using the wiki specific synthax for destination wiki.
I am having a look at wikiModel that seems to contain a parser.I am also
trying to understand Plexus.
A Many thanks for your advices.

Keerthan Muthurasa
