[xwiki-devs] Google Summer Of Code 2013

by lavinia bobonete

Hi, My name is Lavinia Bobonete and I am now pursuing a Master degree in Computer Science, at Politehnica University of Bucharest. I have a couple of years experience with Java (both SE and EE) and JavaScript (JavaScript MVC especially), so I think that there shouldn't be any programming barriers. I've looked over your proposed projects and there is more than one project that catches my attention: Wiki Collections, Live Notifications, Messaging Feature and Extension Repository. These all correspond to my area of interest. But I have a question: is there any project with a higher priority in the development of XWiki? And secondly: how can I start getting involved? I'm looking forward to hearing from you and being a valuable part of the community, Lavinia Bobonete

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Flavor's vision + Next steps

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Caty, Thomas, Marius and myself have had a brainstorming session today about Flavors. Here's the proposal that came out of it: * Remove notion of XE/XEM distributions. The distribution is just "XWiki" * XWiki becomes an empty shell (as it is already when you download the WAR), even when you download the standalone distribution * Generate distributions in xwiki-platform, maybe in xwiki-distributions with installers inside and some functional tests (but most func tests will be with flavors) * Remove xwiki-enterprise and xwiki-manager and introduce xwiki-flavors/ in xwiki-platform * Introduce notion of Categories for extensions (similar to the category concepts in wiki macros) * Flavors will be extensions categorized as "flavors" (using the Categories system) * In the future we'll also need a new Maven <paclaging> type to represent a grouping of extensions with no specific content * Display Flavors in DW first steps and ask user to choose which one they want to specialize their wiki * First 2 flavors we need: Workspaces and Knowledge Base (closest to the current XE but without Blog). We need to define precisely the first version of these 2 flavors We also agreed that the main work to be done before we can really have flavors is to implement Categories for extensions. We'll need to decide when we start working on this in our roadmap but probably not before 5.2 anyway since 1) it'll be Marius and Thomas who would work on this and 2) Thomas has to work on performance import/export and Marius needs to work on AWM, probably both in 5.1 (roadmap not defined yet). WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Fwd: MEDIA ALERT: The Apache Struts Project Announces Apache Struts™ 1 End-Of-Life

by Sergiu Dumitriu

We really should stop using Struts 1. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: MEDIA ALERT: The Apache Struts Project Announces Apache Struts™ 1 End-Of-Life Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2013 14:01:20 +0100 (BST) From: Sally Khudairi <sk(a)apache.org> Reply-To: Sally Khudairi <sk(a)apache.org> To: announce(a)apache.org <announce(a)apache.org> >> this announcement is also available online at http://s.apache.org/7zi Apache Struts 2 recommended as an elegant Open Source, extensible successor framework for creating enterprise-ready Java Web applications Forest Hill, MD –9 April 2013– WHO: The Apache Software Foundation's Apache Struts Project, creators of leading Open Source solutions for creating Java web applications. WHAT: The Struts™ 1.x Web framework has reached its end-of-life (EOL) and is no longer officially supported. Created in 2000 to provide an improved development experience over pure Java Server Pages (JSP) utilization, Apache Struts 1 soon became the de-facto standard for Java-based Web application development. Numerous companies world-wide adopted Struts 1 as a strategic platform, even after JSF (Java Server Faces) was introduced as a standardized Java EE framework for Web application development. Its popularity was so prevalent in the early 2000s, most job offerings in the space of Java-based Web technology required Struts 1 as a must-have skill. Today, many important Websites and Web-based user interfaces continue to rely on Struts 1 technology. In addition, many popular Web frameworks, such as Spring MVC and WebWork, were significantly inspired by Struts 1. WHEN: The Apache Struts Project Management Committee is not aware of any urgent issues posing the immediate need to eliminate Struts 1 usage. However, the project's EOL status signifies that security and bug fixes will no longer be provided effective immediately. The Apache Struts project recommends new projects to be developed using Struts 2 as opposed to Struts 1. While any action-based Java web framework is a potential candidate to re-use Struts 1 architectural experience or migrate existing Struts-1-based applications, users are highly advised to investigate Struts 2 as a successor framework. WHY: Struts 2 is modern, highly decoupled, feature rich, well maintained, and successfully running in many mission-critical projects globally. It shares the same basic principles with Struts 1, and offers a highly improved architecture, API, and solution portfolio. WHERE: The last release of Apache Struts 1 is version 1.3.10 from December 2008. All software downloads, notices, and updates are available at the Apache Struts project homepage at http://struts.apache.org/. NEXT STEPS: The Struts community continues its focus on pushing the Apache Struts 2 framework forward, with as many as 23 releases to date. Availability and Oversight Apache Struts software is released under the Apache License v2.0, and is overseen by a self-selected team of active contributors to the project. A Project Management Committee (PMC) guides the Project's day-to-day operations, including community development and product releases. Apache Struts source code, documentation, mailing lists, and related resources are available at http://struts.apache.org/. About The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) Established in 1999, the all-volunteer Foundation oversees nearly one hundred fifty leading Open Source projects, including Apache HTTP Server — the world's most popular Web server software.

[xwiki-devs] Potentially missing deps on translation macro module

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Recently we've done a big work of converting the old $msg into $services.localization or {{translation/}}. Every time we've done that in a module we need to add a dependency in its pom on the appropriate localization module. I haven't checked fully if we've done this or not but it's possible that some functional tests don't fail because they don't test everything so we need to review the POMs. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Should we imply more than the delete right for document creator ?

by Denis Gervalle

Hi devs, While introducing the new security module, we have added a new right named "creator", only applicable at document level, it is automatically applied on documents for their creator. This right is not really checked for itself, but it imply the delete right with a tie resolution policy of allow, and a inheritance policy of not deniable. This give a document creator the right to delete the document whatever other policies could say about him. Since having only delete right on a document does not seems really logical, I am wondering if it would not be good to make the creator right also imply the view, and the edit right. This would give to document creators consistant minimal right on their documents, what ever the policy of the wiki is. WDYT ? -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO eGuilde sarl - CTO

[xwiki-devs] Mobile XWiki Client and Mobile Skin repositories on xwiki-contrib

by Ludovic Dubost

As discussed a while ago, I'm finally made public the Mobile XWiki Client code I've been working on. I've transfered the repository as well as the mobile skin repository to xwiki-contrib https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/mobile-standardxwikiclient https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/skin-mobile-simple The next step for the mobile client is a rework to be: 1/ More modular to allow for additional module and UI changes to allowed by plugins. 2/ A rework of the network layer to be able to queue requests to XWiki and manager errors and retries as well as login.
