[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Change to the 4.1-rc-1 and 4.1 release process.

by Caleb James DeLisle

After some discussion on IRC, the current plan for releasing 4.1-rc-1 and 4.1 has been determined to be unworkable. The specific part at issue is the calling of a VOTE to release what is currently in the staging repository and waiting 72 hours for it to be verified. While this provides the best quality assurance, each blocker means another failed vote and another 72 hours + the time to fix the issue and stage another release. Proposal: Stage the release 2 days before the official release date allowing blockers to be found and fixed. Fix the issues and release the resulting build without any guaranteed testing window, hoping that the patches to the earlier issues didn't introduce any regressions. I don't like it much but it seems that it sucks less than all of the alternatives so +0 for me. Caleb

[xwiki-devs] Bug count status on 8th of June 2012 - Diverging

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, It seems we're loosing the race against bug reports: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=10000#Created-vs-R… For the past 365 days there are have been 780 bugs reported and 692 resolved (gap of 88 bugs). The graph seems to indicate that the gap is increasing. Should we organize a bug fixing day? Any other idea? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Current document vs. current wiki

by Marius Dumitru Florea

Hi devs, Following Anca's comments on http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-6058 I realized that the current document and the current wiki (database) are completely independent: you can have "someWiki" as the current wiki (context.setDatabase("someWiki")) and otherWiki:Space.Page as the current document (document.setAsContextDoc(context)). This means that it's not enough to set the current document if you want relative references to be resolved relative to that document. You also need to set the current wiki, Is this the desired behaviour? Should setAsContextDoc also set the current wiki? WDYT? Thanks, Marius

[xwiki-devs] [UX][Idea] Render Switches

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, One of the big problems for simple users when trying to use XWiki is the mix we have between text content and syntax/code content. If the user wants to edit the title of the WebHome he will see "$msg.get('xe.home.title')". Same happens for other use cases, like editing the title of the 'Welcome' gadget, etc. This is an idea for having a switch for rendered/syntax content for inputs: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/RenderSwitches… Read the full proposal at: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/RenderSwitches Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] New Maven Copy plugin usage

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Just a quick mail to let you know I've started using the Maven Copy plugin (http://evgeny-goldin.com/wiki/Copy-maven-plugin). ATM it's used only in the generic installer module: https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-enterprise/blob/master/xwiki-enterprise-inst… It's very nice. At some point we'll need to decide if we wish to use it more throughout our build. It completely replaces the Assembly plugin, the Dependency plugin and the Remote Resources one. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [PROPOSAL] Release process/dates for 4.1-rc-1

by Caleb James DeLisle

In order to try meet a release date, I would like to use the process as documented here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/ReleasePlans#H4.1RC1 Synopsis: June 4th: * send 2 day warning mail, ask if anyone needs to block the release. * branch stable-4.1.x to allow 4.2 development to continue. June 6th: * build staged release. * send out call for testing. * do release on jira with release post-dated to the 11th. June 11th: * release from staging. * publish release. I know this is a tight schedule but realistically we need 2 days for warning/stabilization and 2 (working) days for testing. WDYT? Caleb

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Remove the ancient wikiwiki rendering engine from the platform

by Sergiu Dumitriu

Hi devs, Most of the devs know about the new xwiki-rendering engine which provides the support for the new xwiki/2.x syntaxes, and the old Radeox-based rendering engine which provides support for the xwiki/1.0 syntax, but I wonder who knows about the Oro-based wikiwiki engine that provides support for an even older undocumented wiki syntax? That one has been in the oldcore sources before I came in contact with XWiki, and it has been disabled for a very long time. One thing that we still use from that basic rendering engine is the support for {pre}{/pre} code escaping, and that one will have to be preserved even if we remove all the rest. The advantages of removing it include: - less ancient, unused, buggy code -- thus slightly less PermGen memory required and faster startup - one less Oro dependency (a long term goal is to remove Oro and ECS from our dependencies) - fewer WTFs from people stumbling over that code Does anybody know of any users of that syntax? Is anybody still running 0.1.x versions? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

[xwiki-devs] tab character displays null in xwiki syntax 1.0

by Paul Libbrecht

Hello fellow developers, it occurred to us that using a number followed by a dot then a tab character actually renders with a nested list and the word "null" is displayed. Is this something known? I could not find this on the bug base, we have opened: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CURRIKI-5815 I'm fearing, as anything syntax 1.0 that fixing that is going to be quite delicate. thanks for hints.
