Hi devs,
XWiki 5.3M1 is scheduled to be released the next Monday. I'll go through
the list of bugs fixed for it and also take a look at the new features.
Besides these, do you want something else tested as well ?
Thank you,
Manuel
Hi devs,
Here's some proposal based on discussions with various committers (those from XWiki SAS) and based on our past roadmap leftovers:
Content
=======
* We need to ensure the SOLR Search is working perfectly well so that it can replace our Lucene search. We've recently found a big limitation (http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9508) which prevents it from being used in the same way the Lucene search was used before. In addition there are some improvements to make to it (the list of jira issues need to be reviewed). I've discussed with Marius and he's ok to work on this for 5.3.
* Continue working on the workspaces integration by default in XWiki Enterprise - Guillaume Delhumeau
- integrate creation of "farm mode wiki" (i.e. local users allowed)
- internal refactoring to move all wiki-related code to new xwiki-platform-wiki modules
- and more…
* Finish scalable import/export (and make it the default) - Thomas Mortagne
* Implement Confluence import using wikistream - Thomas Mortagne
* Improvements on EM/DW - Thomas Mortagne and Marius as time permits (secondary priority compared to SOLR search and import/export+confluence import)
* Security: Continue work started by Thomas Delafosse on Script signing - Denis Gervalle
* If time permits: AWM improvements (export and publish of applications + others) - Marius
Here are also some JIRA issues that were raised as important (in this order of importance):
* XWIKI-9117: When upgrading a wiki, do not display what happened (files edited, etc.) in the Activity Stream
* XWIKI-9046: Improve document save performance by not loading the full history
* XWIKI-6700: Copying a page over an existing one does not warn user
* XWIKI-7377: AWM Add the ability to publish an application as an extension
* XWIKI-5146: Support LiveTable text filtering on DBListclass columns
* XWIKI-9156: The Wiki UIExtensions should check the rights before executing extension points
* XWIKI-8763: Improve AWM for it to deal with error messages directly in the edit mode
* XWIKI-9227: Extend the link creation feature for XEM
* XWIKI-8757: Support 2 roles for users for app within minutes: application creator and data creator
* XWIKI-9233: Cannot save a wiki page containing a link towards a page with a full name >255
For committers for whom I've suggested a name next to items above, is it ok for you to work on this in 5.3? Please make sure you create ASAP the full list of JIRAs that you're committing to work on for XWiki 5.3 and that you put them on the roadmap page at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Roadmaps/WebHome
For committers not listed, anything special you wish to work on for 5.3?
Dates
=====
5.3M1: 21st of October (2-3 weeks depending on when we release 5.2 final)
5.3M2: 4th of November (2 weeks)
5.3RC1: 18th of November (2 weeks)
5.3Final: 25th of December (1 week)
This allows to keep the November period for 5.3 final as planned initially so that we can have 5.4 in December and 5.5 in January.
WDYT?
Thanks everyone!

I am currently running Tomcat 7.0.39 as well the Xwiki 5.0.3 WAR. I
imported the Xwiki database into MySQL from an older version of Xwiki which
could be the cause of the problems below...
When I enter "Administer Xwiki" and choose "Groups" I am sent to the
following which lists the groups as expected.
/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin§ion=Groups#|t=groupstable&p=1&l=10&wiki=local
When I click on the "pencil icon" to add a user to a group the same page URL
is refreshed and shows a lot of white space followed by a list of users in
that group at the bottom of the page.
There is no option to add the user to a group. So somewhere along the line
I believe something became corrupt during my Xwiki update.
I tried copying some VMs from the templates subdir back to my main webapp
directory but that didn't work.
Any suggestions on where to look?
Screenshot attached.

Hello guys,
Just for fun, I encountered this:
https://code.google.com/p/gource/
This is pretty much completely useless, but this log visualization is very
beautiful and fascinating.
I tried it on the rendering project.
It cought me for more time than I had to spend ... ;-)

Hi,
With Caleb we are working on http://www.webviewers.org/ which documents a
new standard for portable javascript web viewer and editors which can be
used to view and edit files of supported format (current text, pdf,
spreadsheet) in any web applications (starting with XWiki). We are demoing
this technology on Friday at the Open World Forum in paris.
We would need a mailing list to complement the wiki. There are multiple
options for that list:
- have it maintained by xwiki.org webviewers(a)xwiki.org
- open a google group
- open a google plus space
- open some other web support space
What would you think is better, knowing that the objective will be to have
participants from developers working on javascript viewers and developers
working on web applications.

Hi devs,
I'll be speaking at a conference this Thursday and won't be available all day. Sorry about that.
Could some dev volunteer to organize this BFD?
Thanks

Hey everyone,
I wrote a panel in XWiki to do some kind of filtering and retrieving data using both XWQL and HQL, and it works fine on the panel Editing page. But when I try including that panel on some other page, it throws errors.
Caused by: org.xwiki.velocity.XWikiVelocityException: Failed to evaluate content with id [xwiki:Panels.Event Summary]
Caused by: org.apache.velocity.exception.MethodInvocationException: Invocation of method 'execute' in class org.xwiki.query.internal.DefaultQuery threw exception org.xwiki.query.QueryException: Full form statements requires programming right. Query statement = [select doc.name from XWikiDocument doc, BaseObject as obj, StringProperty prop where doc.fullName = obj.name and prop.id.id=obj.id and prop.name='shortText5' and prop.value='USA' and obj.className = 'Event revised.EventrevisedClass'] at xwiki:Panels.Event Summary[line 14, column 278]

I don't know what could be possibly wrong. So, Please help.
Thanks,
