Hi devs,
For the next few months, on my free time, I would like to create an
XWiki extension that allows document import using OCR (Optical Character
Recognition).
I think that I'll be able to create the JIRA project myself, but could
someone create the repository for this project on XWiki Contrib ?
Here are some usual infos:
* Repository name / Application name: `application-ocrimport`
* Application description: `Creates Wiki documents from images or
scanned PDFs using optical character recognition`
* GitHub username: `aubincleme`
Please let me know if you need something else.
Thanks,
Clément
The XWiki development team is proud to announce the availability of XWiki 9.10RC1.
This is mostly a release focusing on improving the new Notifications feature, in order to make it as polished and usable as possible before the end of the year (i.e. before the end of the Cycle and before we elect a new LTS release). It also contains several bug fixes.
You can download it here: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download
Make sure to review the release notes:

Hi devs,
We started to think about https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-14377
with Caty and she noticed that it might not be as simple as "all
extensions pages are protected" because there is extensions pages that
are almost always supposed to be modified: first example is
Main.WebHome which is modified 99% of the time but another good one is
Sandbox or Quicklinks panel.
So what do we do about it ?
I'm not fully sure yet but here are some ideas :
1) So what ? It's still extension pages and you might still have
conflicts during next upgrade. If you want standard pages to be
modified then generate them during install.
2) Only show the warning when a page is hidden and consider all non
hidden pages as OK to modify
3) Explicitly mark each standard page that is OK to be modified with
some xobject
3.a) EM XAR handler behave with these pages as it always did
3.b) EM XAR handler has a special support for these pages controlled
by one of the xobject fields (skip the document from any merge if
there is any customization, always overwrite any customization, etc.)
WDYT ?
1) might be too harsh, generating Main.WebHome might be doable (but
still a pain to maintain) but it's quite a pain to generate the whole
Sandbox space (and not even talking about maintaining it...)
2) we might still want to see some application home pages in the
search result and most of them should really not be modified
3.a) will still have the "what should I do" effect sometime for pages
that user is allowed to modify
3.b) has my preference right now, sounds like the nicest from user and
author point of view, can even be used for other use cases than edit
protection control
