The default of the first, is the second however !
And, AFAIK, apart from the attachment storage, what was stored there where
mainly data that could be freely deleted.

their permission.
I do not fully agree. My work dir has always been been stored in a place
like /var/cache, where the data is not backup and has not real importance
(I was not using filesystem attachement obviously). This was the default
WDYT?
+1 and +1 for no migration by default too. If admin did his job
properly, work dir and permanent dir are supposed to be the same
a debian install. On the other hand,
permanentDirectory should be in
/var/lib, and be backed up. This is my setup right now with the patch of
Caleb.
xwiki.work.dir was already supposed to be used for persisted datas and
there was xwiki.temp.dir for temporary stuff.
What's in xwiki.properties is just a new component
oriented access to
the same thing and nothing new.
Anyway you would have use it properly if you were using filesystem
attachment so it does not really change the need for a migration.
Sure.
anyway and if the permanent dir is not set then
admin just need to set
it and it OK.
