Hi devs,
Given that each development cycle usually starts with bigger changes and
ends with a couple of stabilization releases, IMHO it makes sense to
keep the last branch of a cycle maintained for a while longer.
Our current strategy is to only support two branches at a time, the one
being developed, and the one before it. This means that as soon as [N].0
is released, [N-1].5.x is dropped. However, the [N-1].5.x branch is much
more stable and polished than the fresh new start of the cycle, so more
people would be interested in using that stable version, especially in
enterprise situations. Thus, I propose to amend our support rule to keep
the end-of-cycle branch active for, let's say, 6 months. Still, this
means only that we backport major or critical issues, which would
improve the stability of that branch, without any new features.

Hi devs,
As I said in another mail I'm working on a diff/merge module to use in
XWiki, the first target being Extension Manager and document history
(since both are going to use the same code, see Marius mails).
You can see the detail on https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-commons/pull/2.
TODO/QUESTIONS:
* improve the generic 3 ways merge to be at least as good as the
List<String> 3 ways merge and get rid of JDiff
* not sure where/if I should put String related helpers (things that
do a diff on two String instead of having to cut List<String> or
List<Character> and call the diff API etc.)
I'm ready to merge it into master so I'm waiting your vote.
Caleb is it OK to put new stuff in master already or should I wait the
complete release to be done ?
Here is my +1.
Thanks,

Hi devs,
We have the need of a Configuration Source component hint for implementation that only looks in non-modifiable sources (e.g. xwiki.properties).
More specifically there's a security issue in some cases in allowing to use the current "default" configuration source which looks in space preferences, wiki preferences and the only in xwiki.properties.
For example the Environment's permanent directory should not be modifiable from wiki pages (see http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XCOMMONS-182).
So here's the proposal:
* Introduce a new RestrictedConfigurationSourceProvider implementation (in configuration-api) that does the same as the current ConfigurationSourceProvider but when looking up the CS, it looks for a CS with hint "restricted"
* Deprecate the current XWikiPropertiesConfigurationSource (hint = "default")
* Add a new XWikiPropertiesConfigurationSource with hint = "restricted"
* Modify DefaultEnvironmentConfiguration to use:
@Inject
@Named("restricted")
private Provider<ConfigurationSource> configurationSourceProvider;
WDYT?
Thanks

Hi,
I would like to release M2 early tomorrow, if any developer needs to hold the release
to make a change, or has any questions, please reply to this mail before the end of today.
Thanks,
Caleb
Hi,
I know this is not a support list, but we found a bug that we consider
serious related to searching:
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7753
Since search is an often used function, we believe others have faced
this so I'd like to ask the most experienced ones if this bug is a real
bug, or we just misconfigured XWiki.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel Marczisovszky
Hi, all,
I am trying to add buttons on the wysiwyg or inline form editor toolbar, I
checked the wysiwyg gwt source code, and the wysiwyg.js file, I am more
toward add javascript code in wysiwyg.js file to add javascript code for
buttons on the toolbar, instead of adding java code for the plugin, any
suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Dave
Hello ,I wander if there is the js api document about the wysiwyg which I can use in client .I need to add a very very simple function to the wysiwyg in client.
but I only find some api I can use here!(I use xwiki 3.5)
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/WYSIWYG+Editor+Module#…
Is there api in detail ?.In fact ,The most important thing is to add some HTML elements (just as div or button)to the xwiki document .It is very easy no matter in javascript or gwt(It is unable to use here because of some problems, so I have to implement it in client with js). But I don't know how to operate the xwiki document w't ith js,I even can't get it ,so .. A poor student with poor English and programming knowledge who have to develop the system by himself need your help .Thanks !
Why can't we offer the download of apis ? of it's just I havn't fount theml
