Hello devs,
I would like a repository for the application-internschools on
https://github.com/xwiki-contrib. The application is not yet available on
the extensions wiki, but can be found on my own repository here:
https://github.com/ppantiru/application-internschools .
Quoting from the description of the app: "An application meant to help
keep track of schools for possible internship/part-time job candidates, and
the duration of the ongoing internships/part-time jobs."
I would also like a jira project for this app.
Thanks,
Paul Pantiru
Hi Devs,
I'm currently testing XE 6.2, it's a great release, I love the new look a
lot - well done guys!
I have a quick remark that is related to the new location of the "Create"
button. I think we should move the "create wiki" and "create space" options
from where they are located now.
The "Create wiki" button could be moved under the list of wikis on this
page: http://<server>/xwiki/bin/view/WikiManager/
We would probably need a similar "space index" page with the "Create space"
button there, a bit like what we have on the dashboard now: http://
<server>/xwiki/bin/view/Dashboard/
The objective being that when doing those create actions, they would be
done with the context of the wikis / spaces that already exist.
What is also a bit confusing for users is that since creating a new wiki is
much much bigger and less frequent than creating a new page, the action
should not be available from every single page.
This issue has become much more salient than before to me because of the
new location of the "Create" button. What's your opinion about this?
Thanks,
Guillaume
Hi devs,
I saw that on XE 6.2, the "Spaces" panel still uses an old code snippet
instead of the more recent and better looking {{spaces/}} macro. I'm
therefore suggesting we use that macro in the panel.
I created the XE-1430 issue <http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XE-1430> to this
effect.
WDYT?

Hi devs,
Since we`ve skipped the last ones, I propose we do a BFD (BFD#63) tomorrow:
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/XWikiDays#HBugfixingdays
As we already know, the numbers for the 1 year status have spiralled out of
control. We are currently 102 bugs behind. See:
http://jira.xwiki
.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=10000#Created-vs-Resolved-Chart/10470
Also, the release of 6.2.1 is around the corner so the time is right for
some bug squashing!
Here's the BFD#63 dashboard to follow the progress during the day:
http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=12598
Thanks and happy bug fixing!

Hi Devs,
I’d like to add some logging to debug what happens when XWiki shuts down.
One solution would be to just use the standard class loggers with LOGGER.debug(…).
However this means activating debug logging for everything and thus you cannot just focus on the shutdown part.
WDYT about adding 2 new loggers "org.xwiki.initialization" and “org.xwiki.shutdown”?
Example usage:
/**
* Logger to use to log shutdown information.
*/
private static final Logger SHUTDOWN_LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger("org.xwiki.shutdown");
...
SHUTDOWN_LOGGER.debug("Stopping component [{}]...", instance.getClass().getName());
...
SHUTDOWN_LOGGER.debug("Component [{}] has been stopped", instance.getClass().getName());
Then it becomes easy to set, in logback.xml:
<logger name=“org.xwiki.shutdown" level=“debug"/>
A small variation would be to use SHUTDOWN_LOGGER.info() and in logback.xml, by default to have:
<logger name=“org.xwiki.shutdown" level=“warn"/>
Note that this would be the first time we use non-class loggers which is why I’m asking for your go-ahead.
Thanks

Hi devs,
AFAIK we have no plans to release a 6.1.1 version since we’re releasing 6.2 final next week.
I’m thus proposing to remove the 6.1.x branch.
Let me know if someone needs this branch. Otherwise I’ll remove it at the end of this week or early next week.
Thanks

Hello!
During Java Bootcamp organized bu Accenture Riga delivery center,
students have developed updated XWiki Blog application which support
multiple languages for the posts and blog.
I have cleaned it a bit and could contribute as another extension in
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/
Though, I think it would be better to use this as a default Blog
application bundled with XWiki Enterprise (with some fixes and updates,
which from XWiki side, which I'll document later).
What do you think would be the best way?
Thanks!
Valdis
