Hi devs,
XE 1.8.1 is planned for the 6th of April (next Monday).
I propose we plan a XE 1.8.2 two weeks after, i.e. for the 20th of
April.
The goals is that it'll contain the issues planned for 1.8.1 that are
not finished:

Again the idea is to make rendering/wysiwyg bug fixes and improvements
available to our users ASAP.
Here's my +1
Thanks

Hello,
I am Keerthan Muthurasa , Msc Software Engineering student at Oxford Brookes
University , I am interested on
doing a project for xwiki.
I would like to discuss about my ideas for the "Import Export from any other
Wiki Project" and if you could in return give me your opinions
that would be really helpfull for me.
This is the project requirement :
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Import Export from any other
Wiki<http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/ImportExportfromanyo…>
Create a extensible framework to import export data between wikis. This
should handle converting the data in the pages including
links between pages and metadata as well as direct access to the data
through either a web service (prefered) or database or the
file system
The system should at least for MediaWiki and Confluence in import mode
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I will begin with some questions:
* What does it mean when talking about converting links between pages ( we
are talking about converting internal links in the source wiki isn it ?,
That's mean when importing or exporting data we should think about exporting
or importing the linked data as well in order to keep an integrity).
* What does it mean when talking about exporting metadata ,direct access to
data through either a web service or database or file system ?
Here my idea for the project , if I can have some feedback it would be
helpfull for me:
When exporting or importing data from a given wiki to a destionation
one
Setp 1: get rid of all specific synthax proper to the source wiki
and retrieve data,metadata, and other usefull information.This can be
achieved
using a kind of parser whose job is to scan the source
page and reconize the specific synthax and only retrieve proper
data.Concerning encountered links ,we should
convert theses pages as well but we have to be carefull
when cross linked ( for instance we are converting page A and A links to B
but when
converting B ,B links to A).
Step 2: adopt a datacentric approach to properly store data in a
such a way that is easy to retrieve them.We have to be carefull when storing
data
since they have to keep the original pages structure.
Step 3: use previously retrieved data to create the result page in
the destination wiki using the wiki specific synthax for destination wiki.
I am having a look at wikiModel that seems to contain a parser.I am also
trying to understand Plexus.
A Many thanks for your advices.

Keerthan Muthurasa
Hi,
I have completed my application on project idea - Jabber, GTalk, Skype
Integration with XWiki. Please kindly look at my sections on *Project
Architecture, Mockups and shedule *and update me on them to make any further
clarifications on it. I was completely new to XWiki and the mailing list
helped me a lot to come up to this stage, and I am really happy being with
XWiki community.
Thank you,

Hi,
We have quite a few anti vandalism projects proposals. I would suggest
to the candidates that have proposed an anti vandalism project to also
propose a second XWiki project that they would be interested in pursuing.
This could help us not having a tough choice between good candidates.

Hello Devs,
I have been working on implementing document splitting functionality in
office importer for last two weeks. Currently it's working nicely but before
it can be integrated into our main source tree there are few things we need
to agree upon.
1. New UI of the office importer application.
2. Design of the splitting functionality.
Apart from above two topics, I need a good suit of tests as well (working on
it).
== Current UI ==
Screenshot: http://i41.tinypic.com/2h4i1s9.jpg
As you can see, there are new options for appending content into an existing
page plus performing the split operation. Since I'm not a HCI expert I'm
pretty sure some of the aspects of this UI need to be changed. So your feed
back is very important on this :)
== Current Design ==
UML Diagram: http://i42.tinypic.com/345bxhw.png
There are two things I need to discuss with this design.
1) I'm using WikiDocument objects to buffer / collect XDOM fragments that
represent newly split documents. This allows me to associate names, parents,
titles etc. with corresponding XDOM structures so that after the split
operation I can save them as wiki pages. As you can see, WikiDocument is
kind of a model object that should be replaced when the new model component
is available. Still, I'm not sure if the idea of WikiDocument should be
avoided even at this point.
2) DocumentSplitter is not a component interface. I had to do this because
HeadingLevelDocumentSplitter has internal state and I couldn't think of a
way to make it a component. However I can make it a component by abstracting
out the split criterion from the document splitter as described in next
(alternative) design.
== Alternative Design ==
UML Diagram: http://i39.tinypic.com/28k24w4.png
Here I have abstracted out the split criterion from the document splitter.
The DefaultDocumentSplitter will recurse through the main XDOM asking
SplitCriterion and NamingCriterion to take care of the splitting operation.
I think this design is more reusable than the first design. WDYT?
If you have any comments regarding these topics, please let me know.
Thanks.

Hello all!
My name is Teofil Achirei, I am a student at Technical University of
Iasi, Faculty of Automatic
Control and Computer Engineering.
I have 2 years of experience as java web developer and I'm a Microsoft
Certified Technology
Specialist .NET Framework Foundation.
I'm passionate about web development, web mining and applications integration.
You can find out more about me on my web crawling weblog:
http://teofilachirei.wordpress.com/
I would like to participate to GSoC 2009 on the project "Skin and
template support for XOffice".
I find XWord as a very useful add-in and I would like to improve its
functionality.
Currently what XWord misses most is skin and template integration and
that's what this project
is about. I've created a wiki on myxwiki.org
(http://teofilachirei.myxwiki.org) and I'll soon add
pages and mockups for this project.
I've submitted my proposal on GSoC website. Please let me know if it
needs further improvements.
Thanks.
