Hi devs,
Since XE 2.0 will be released soon I'd like to release XE 1.9.4 and
XEM 1.7.4 tomorrow.
After this XEM release I suggest to create the 1.7 branch and make XEM
trunk 2.0.
Changelog since 1.9.3:
XWIKI-4249 . key acts like the delete key at the end of the list items
XWIKI-4263 Include macro should expose the default value of "context" property
XWIKI-4175 Livetable sorting failed when the text of the header column
is clicked
XWIKI-4093 Refactor the code to use the new EventHandler system
XWIKI-4158 Update the Feed Plugin to work properly with latest XWiki
and Rome Code
XWIKI-4170 Wrong encoding in ApplicationResources_pt.properties
XWIKI-4139 New {{formula}} macro for displaying mathematical expressions
Here's my +1.

Hi,
Just looked at the Sonar reports for XWiki (which are false regarding
testing coverage btw since they don't include integration tests) but
the duplicate section is interesting.
Global dashboard for XWiki Platform:
http://nemo.sonarsource.org/project/index/168852
For example we have quite a few code duplication for the REST module:
http://nemo.sonarsource.org/drilldown/measures/168852?highlight=duplicated_…
[]=128556
And several other new modules too.
Would be good if devs could have a look and fix duplicates they have
introduced :)
Thanks

Hi Marius,
I have installed Firebug days ago since you first time recommended and I am
learning it. Thank you for your recommendation!
Thank you guys for helping me. I really appreciate it. I will try to figure
out your replies and see whether I have further questions.

Hi (especially Denis),
I've just found an interesting library: Emory Utilities
It has a URIClassLoader that fixes a lof of bugs from the JDK version
and will work for fixing my problem with the script macros.
Doc: http://dcl.mathcs.emory.edu/php/loadPage.php?content=util/features.html#cla…
Sources: http://dcl.mathcs.emory.edu/bin/viewvc/software/harness2/trunk/util/src/edu…
Denis, could you have a look and check if it solves the problems you
have also solved with your implementation? From what I see it solves
most of the pb you have seen and a few others related to special chars
in URLs. I just want to be sure your version isn't fixing something
more this impl. is not fixing.
I'll be trying to use it over the week end but I've already found a
way to make it work for my use case (even though these guys didn't
know about dependency injection at that time - it was back in 2005...).
Thanks

Hi Devs,
I'm looking for someone with XWiki development experience who would also
happen to be living in Australia at the moment. Do you know someone who
does?
Thanks,
Guillaume

Hello XWiki developers,
can someone explain me what is the strategy to define the mime-type of
an attachment?
I see not configurable map nor any setter on the attachment types.
Is there any way I can enrich this or is it simply taking over the
mime-type provided the browser (which, too often, ends up being
application/octet-stream) ?
thanks in advance
paul
Hi XWiki Devs & Users,
It's roadmap time again!
Based on the previous roadmap, feedback on the lists and the results of the
survey we conducted (see
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/Features+Survey+Results ), here's a
list of stuff we might want to work on in the XE 2.1 timeframe which will
last approximately until December 2009:
IMPROVEMENTS
On top of the usual bugfix work, here's a list of improvements we might want
to bring in the course of the release in order to stabilize the 2. branch as
much as we can:
- Colibri skin
- Clean the skin so that it's no longer a pile of code added on top of
Toucan
- Improve the ColorTheme page (theme catalog, theme creation)
- WYSIWYG editor
- Test and improve IE8 compatibility
- Test and improve Chrome / Safari compatibility
- Add more translations
- Rendering
- Internationalize
- Add translations
- Conversion to 2.0 syntax
- XAR 2.0 (notably Blog & Panels)
- Office importer
- The application shouldn't be displayed when the office server is not
running
- Wiki macros
- Textarea should be larger
- Importer
- Make the import create new versions of existing pages instead of
overwriting them
- *Search (one of the most asked for features in the survey)*
- Fix the bugs with our Lucene Search implementation to make it the
default one
- Finish implementing the new search UI
- Performance (one of the most asked for features in the survey)
- Clean and apply Denis Gervalle's patch related to attachment upload
memory handling
- Clean and apply Caleb James DeLisle's patch related to document
loading
- Keep working on making the skin lighter
- Other?
- User Profile UI
- Improve the watchlist UI
- Make the user profile look clearer
NEW FEATURES
We won't have the time to work on all of them, but here's a list of new
features we might want to consider working on:
- Skin -> revamp / move the action bar
- CAPTCHA Integration -> make CAPTCHAS available on login / comments
- Application Manager -> create applications descriptors, ability to
version applications
- Document Type Manager -> make XClass & application creation easy
through a nicer UI
- Invitation Manager -> make it easier to add users to the wiki (send an
email allowing account creation)
- Multipage Management tools -> create and export lists of pages
Feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks,
Guillaume

Hello everybody,
this is my first post to the list, i'm also newbie with Xwiki. I was
about to post this same question myself but Caleb James DeLisle took the
lead:
>I was wondering if it would be worthwhile to try working on allowing
>objects to contain other objects as well as properties (like Java)
Put in other words, could we have Classes where one (or more) of its
properties are instances of other Classes? It seems from what i read on
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/DataModel
that the answer right now would be "no". Could someone shed some light
on why is it so (what's the reason behind)?
Thank you !
Guillem
