yes generally, you can see that :)
My aim was just to have a quick facade looking like a complete site, not

Yes I have seen this...
As I said, you can customize everything you want in XWiki, even the
skin...
but it is not quite easy without lots of
scripting and CSS-styling etc...
And what's interesting in Drupal, Joomla or Magnolia is that you can
easily
find skin templates on the web with all the UI
components needed to build
a
website and there are also modules that allow to
customize graphically
the
look&feel of your website. Generally I
Don't want to spend too much time
on
skin design when I begin a new web project... I
want to focus on the
content, not on the skin...
I get your point. But until I see your site done with Magnolia+XWiki, I
thought that it is really possible to identify a site done with Drupal
or Joomla, by the look of the "customized" skins done by using the
customization wizards of this systems.
OK, XWiki has not such kind of tool, but I think I do prefer a clear and
complete documentation that can be understood by a design team to be
appointed to develop a completely different look and feel over a WYSIWYG
wizard allowing, probably, only some actions.
the wysiwyg should only be a helper allowing to access some features more
easily but we need to keep the deep customization features (the XWiki
wysiwyg editor is an example of that... you can write with it but when you
need to have a more precise view, you go in the classical editor)
I am sure, with an enlarged dev team, none of these will be a problem!
for sure, this wouldn't be a problem ;)...
Imagine you have a project with a quotation of 1.000.000 mendays... you find
1.000.000 people and in 1 day, you have your solution :)
Cheers,
Ricardo
