[xwiki-devs] XWiki/XEclipse template/form system.

by Karel Gardas

Hello, I'm currently reading about XWiki and XEclipse and would like to ask if there is any consensus about XWiki pages templates which might also be usable from XEclipse probably after some code hacking on its plugins. I'm currently working on some project for my client (source code will be contributed/available later in the project stage) where there is a need to use XEclipse and enhance it to support some predefined forms/templates for web pages creation. So far I've found just XWiki FAQ tutorial on http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial which tries to deals with some kind of templates. However this looks quite general at least so far to me and so I would like to ask the question above about consensus where and how to go with templates in xwiki/xeclipse. My current idea is to stick with the XWiki server as a provider of templates to preserve ability to use templates from both browser and xeclipse and to enhance xeclipse new page creation wizard to provide a list of available templates on the server side... Thanks for any idea where to start or where to look for more information with regarding to this project task. Karel

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal][UX] Application Within Minutes - Proposal 2

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, According to the feedback received I've made another proposal for the Application Within Minutes http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/ApplicationWithinM… Changes: - Wizard style creation - Structure in a form editor style (drag&drop, refresh preview on change) Remarks: - "Create application" could be part of the action menu's "Add" submenu and act as a wizard for the creation process. As a result we will have a space for each application that will list on it's homepage the entries livetable. The structure will be changed by entering again the wizard. Thanks, Caty References: [Proposal][UX] Application Within Minutes - Proposal 1: http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/tvxnoabhbwfcpwmk

[xwiki-devs] [PROPOSAL] Introduce XClass property reference

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi dev, I would like to introduce class property entity type and related reference and syntax separator. For the separator syntax I propose to use the same thing as object separator since you can't have both in the same reference and it's always a pain to find a new separator. Note that I'm inly talking about class property and not class since class reference is exactly the same thing as document reference I don't think we really need to have a specific one. WDYT ? -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Important: Strategy to fix failing tests and stability

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Here's the situation: * We've been having a hard time releasing on time and the main issue is test stability. We lag by at least a week and we even release with failing tests, causing regressions. * It's not the role of the release manager to fix tests before releasing * It's not normal that some people spend time fixing issues caused by others and that others continue to work on the next thing they are working on. Everyone needs to help. Here's what I propose as a drastic and temporary measure till we get better: 1) It's forbidden to commit anything till all tests are passing (unit AND functional tests), unless what is committed is about fixing tests. On the exceptional case when a committer absolutely needs to commit even though tests are failing he needs to ask the permission explicitly. 2) When tests are failing, everyone should stop what they're doing and help stabilize again. We synchronize on IRC. 3) Flickering tests can be marked as @Ignore and a jira issue created to stabilize the build. 4) Release Manager creates a release branch 1 week before the release to let everyone stabilize the build On a long term we need to work on improving our CI so that functional tests are built faster. One idea is: more agents and functional tests spread on several agents. Here's my +1 to apply this now for master (3.2-SNAPSHOT leading to 3.2M1), which means not committing anything more till we have all functional tests passing. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Status of the release

by Caleb James DeLisle

Hello, To keep schedule we would need to have a release today and I am ready to release but we have some outstanding issues which need to be addressed. 1. An blocker was discovered today: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6654 Multiple backslash are not properly handled in reference resolvers tmortagne is assigned so he can report back when this is finished. 2. vmassol wanted to evaluate each test to make sure that all test failures were indeed test errors and not software bugs. Unfortunately this has been severely delayed because of: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-928 broken tests because jmx control port is in use 3. sburjan discovered what seems to be a blocker in the watchlist functionality http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6656 Unable to watch a page/space/wiki We need someone to confirm this and find out what's happening. For release I would like somebody to help me with publicity management, I will handle Wikipedia where I have an account and the announcement mail where I will use my signature but I would like somebody to help with Freshmeat, Wikimatrix, XWiki.org blog, and OW2 news. By spreading out the effort we can put a little bit more time into adding some quality to the writeup. Can I get a volunteer? Caleb
