[xwiki-devs] [UX] Usability issues collection

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, I've created a page on incubator with a collection of issues, problems and ideas that could improve the way the normal user interacts with XWiki. Initially the study was part of the "XWiki in 5 minutes" investigation process, but now it covers all kind of usability issues, grouped by category. I know the list is not complete (and maybe never will) and the bad thing about the list is that is manually generated (I've listed some keyword we could use in JIRA in order to organize them), but it provides lots of ideas and directions we could take for our next roadmaps. Feel free to comment on the collection and please add more ideas and suggestions you have in order to make XWiki easier and more fun, productive to use. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Use artifact id as directory names

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, The proposal is to use artifactid as directory names. Note that this is what I did for commons and rendering when I did the move to top level project. You can check how it looks like here: http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/commons/ http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/rendering/ I suggest we keep one strategy only for consistency. Some discussion here too: http://www.sonatype.com/people/2011/01/maven-tip-project-directories-and-ar… I know there are some cons (see my comment in the link above) but overall I find it simple to implement and with autocompletion not such a big issue. WDYT? If you don't like this then please propose an alternative solution and remember that we'll need to refactor commons and rendering in this case too. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Create a new private list for committers for non public topics + use it for voting committers

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, There are a few topics that are not supposed to be public or that would be better be not public. One such topic is when we want to VOTE someone as a committer. It's very uncomfortable to do this in the open for the following reasons: * committers are tempted to VOTE +1 since voting negatively is seen publicly, including by the person being voted on * it's very undelicate to have this in the open especially if the person is voted down since that'll affect that person's morale and future participation in the project So I'd like to propose creating a committers(a)xwiki.org list with the following characteristics: * private, visible only to committers I also propose it to use it for voting committers. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Improve Component Override mechanism

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, I'd like to propose to improve the Component Override mechanism (currently based on component-overrides.txt, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Component+Module#HOver…). We have a limitation right now in that we can only have one level of override. The issue is that we need more levels even right now since we have component impls in xwiki-commons or xwiki-rendering that are overridden in xwiki-platform (thus using component-overrides.txt). This means that users cannot provide their own implementations. Thus I'd like to propose the following: * Deprecate the component-overrides.txt file * Add an optional priority level number that you can specify in the components.txt * I propose the following format in components.txt: <priority level>:<full package path to implementation as it is now>. Ex: 1000:org.xwiki.rendering.internal.macro.DefaultMacroManager * Use a default priority of 1000 when not specified (same as for our Macro) * Guarantee in the documentation that all components that the XWiki project provides never have priorities under, say, 100. This is so that users who want to override know that if they use a priority under 100 their impls will always win. * Use a priority of 500 in platform when overriding components found in commons or rendering. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent
