Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Terminology for xwiki.org

Ok so we have 3 answers so far… If you agree or don’t agree please send us your inputs, since 3 answers is not that much! I’d really like to progress and publish those on xwiki.org and start using them! See below for the changes.

It’s a minimalistic runtime on top of which you can install Extensions. Documentation for it will be available at http://platform.xwiki.org. Changed to: * The “XWiki Distribution”: the XWiki WAR that you get from the various distributions that you can find on xwiki.org(http://xwiki.org). It’s a minimalistic runtime on top of which you can install Extensions. Documentation for it will be available at http://platform.xwiki.org. * “XWiki Packages”: the various packagings used to distribute the “XWiki Distribution”, e.g. the zip packaging, the debian packaging, the exe installer, etc. "XWiki Platform”. The sources are available in github in the xwiki-commons, xwiki-rendering and xwiki-platform repositories. More globally can be meant to represent all the sources found in the xwiki github organization. Changed to: * “XWiki Core”: Represents the set of XWiki APIs/sources that end up being in the “Default Flavor". The sources are available in github in the xwiki-commons, xwiki-rendering and xwiki-platform repositories. More globally can be meant to represent all the sources found in the xwiki github organization. Generally speaking any module that isn’t bundled in the “Default Flavor” should be moved to XWiki Contrib (except for modules that are used to build “XWiki Core” and potentially some case by case exceptions). The rest remains unchanged. Thanks -Vincent xwiki-contrib organization in github. called "XWiki Development Team"): the list of committers of the “xwiki" github organization. could also represent the xwiki-platform github repository, it’s better to use “XWiki Core” when wanting to name the full content of the xwiki github organization. For example: “The XWiki Core Development Team works on XWiki Core”… installed all together in a XWiki Runtime or when creating a subwiki inside the XWiki Runtime. Development Team”. Contrib projects and more generally anyone else can contribute other flavors on extensions.xwiki.org( http://extensions.xwiki.org). These flavors will appear in the XWiki Platform when you first run it or when you create a new subwiki. The Default Flavor is going to replace “XWiki Enterprise” (and enterprise.xwiki.org(http://enterprise.xwiki.org) will be removed and folded into platform.xwiki.org(http://platform.xwiki.org) - the same will happen for xwiki-enterprise which will be folded into xwiki-platform in github) full set of committers of both the xwiki and xwiki-contrib github organizations. 7.4.1”). Contrib Committers, XWiki Core Committers and by extensions the work done by the full community of contributors to both xwiki and xwiki-contrib github organizations. http://xwiki.org) pages by creating a Terminology page and update some existing pages. However it’ll be up to everyone to follow the terminology. _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
