[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Upgrade to Velocity Engine 1.6.1 and Velocity Tools 1.4

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Under Anca's pressure (joking :)) here's a vote to upgrade our velocity deps. Reasons: * There are some features listed below we want to benefit from in the near future * We have some lock issue with some velocity code in Velocity 1.5 on myxwiki.org and we hope (dream?) that the upgrade could fix them... For details see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3142 Note that the build works fine and the selenium tests seem ok (although some tests are failing but some - all? - were also failing before - this is bad btw since we can't trust our build, we need to fix that). Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent http://xwiki.com http://xwiki.org http://massol.net

[xwiki-devs] Nexus 1.2 released

by Vincent Massol

It looks like we should use Nexus instead of our Archiva: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sonatype/~3/518742450/ I'd be curious to try out staging and promotion. Thanks -Vincent http://xwiki.com http://xwiki.org http://massol.net

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Remove calendar and photoalbum apps from XE default Wiki

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi, I suggest that we remove Calendar and PhotoAlbum applications from XE default wiki. Rationale: - PhotoAlbum is almost unusable with HQ photos (basically any pic taken with a digital camera) because of XE attachment management known bugs. - In their current state those applications doesn't meet XEs quality requirements: test coverage, usability, performance (PhotoAlbum). - Those 2 applications are orphan projects (no active project leaders), btw anyone whishing to care of them is welcome. Here's my +1. JV.

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Authenticate only once by session by default

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi devs, I posted a patch on http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3013 which make XWiki authenticate only once by session by default, this is configurable in xwiki.cfg using xwiki.authentication.always=1. Pros: - quicker navigation because user is not re-authenticated for each request, this can be very annoying when authentication means access another server like LDAP and when there is a lots of users at the same time Cons: - you have to start a new session (by logout/login for example) to be able to update informations from LDAP or any other authentication which do data update from remote authentication server. The cons is why I prefer to make this possible to disable if needed. Here is my +1. Thanks, -- Thomas Mortagne

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Wiki home improvements (Dashboard)

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi, I've worked on a new Dashboard for XE, you can see it at : http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome Note that it may differ a bit from my local version (fixed bugs, improved styling, new tag plugin) but almost everything is there. This new home relies on improvements in the tag application. I'm still waiting for some CSS improvements from Laurent but I'd like to commit it later this week. Here's my +1. Thanks, JV.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal][UI] Make silk our default icons set

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi, Silk icons is a 1000 icons set design for website and webapps. Overview: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/previews/index_abc.png In action: http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Mockups/Children I'm pretty sure you've already seen them since they are becoming a standard all over the web. I think we should bundle them with XWiki [1] for 3 reasons : 1/ They're gorgeous! 2/ We're using icons coming from here and there in our applications (RMUI, Blog, etc) and we're missing some consistency. 3/ Since XWiki is also a webapp development framework I think it would be a good thing that it comes with a complete webapp icons set. Here's my +1. [1] I've mailed Silk author to discuss about licensing issues. I don't know if bundling CCA2.5 licensed work within a LGPL package is allowed. JV.

[xwiki-devs] What do we do with the Albatross skin?

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Now that Toucan has been up and running for more than 1 year what do we do with the Albatross skin? Several options: 1) We continue to support it and fix bugs such as http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-679 2) We decide to mothball it, ie not support it ourselves but apply patches from users if they come. This means keeping it in svn but not packaging it with XE I'm hesitating. Maybe we should poll our users list? Thanks -Vincent http://xwiki.com http://xwiki.org http://massol.net

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Move Tag pages to their own app + xwiki-tag-plugin

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi, I'd like to move Tags related pages to their own app: xwiki-application-tag. I'd also like to commit a small plugin that allows to manipulate tags easily. It also avoid the need of programming rights on pages Tags and TagsRss. The application and the plugin would have the same release cycle and would be included in xwiki enterprise (like skinx or watchlist plugins/apps). This also mean that we'll have a tag application in JIRA. Tag pages : - Main.TagCloud - Main.Tags - Main.TagsRss - XWiki.TagClass Tag plugin API : public List<String> getTags(boolean distinct); public List<String> getPagesWithTag(String tag); public boolean renameTag(String tag, String newTag); public boolean deleteTag(String tag); Here's my +1. JV.

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Add a children section in page footer

by Jean-Vincent Drean

Hi devs, There are 4 votes required, see bellow. 1/ UI. See the screenshot at http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Mockups/Children Note that this list comes along with a generic way of building spaces/pages/attachment/comments lists (ul) in our skin files. Here's my +1 2/ Add a getChildren() method to XWikiDocument and Document (API). Rationale: XWiki is a wiki and the parent/child relationship should be made more visible and easy to display in order to make it useful. I know we should try not to put new methods in our APIs but IMHO this should have been there from the beginning. Proposal: {{code}} Document.java public List<String> getChildren() throws XWikiException { return this.doc.getChildren(getXWikiContext()); } XWikiDocument.java public List<String> getChildren(XWikiContext context) throws XWikiException { String hql ="select doc.fullName from XWikiDocument doc " + "where doc.parent='" + getFullName() + "' order by doc.space, doc.name"; return context.getWiki().search(hql, context); } {{/code}} Note: I've put doc.space and doc.name in the order by clause since getting pages in the 'absolute' alphabetical order afterwards is easy using util.sort while the contrary is not true. Here's my +1 3/ Add a $blacklistedSpaces list in xwikivars.vm. Rationale: avoid duplicates; this list is already present in some panels and pages since it is a common need. Proposal: #set($blacklistedSpaces = ["Import", "Panels", "Scheduler", "Stats", "XAppClasses", "XAppSheets", "XAppTemplates", "XWiki"]) Here's my +1 4/ Don't display the number of children in tab. Rationale: limit the number of HQL queries made on the view action. Here's my +1 Thanks, JV.
