[xwiki-devs] [Brainstorming] Applications / Skin dependence

Hi, With the new Flamingo skin and with the design investigations done on existing Applications, there are more and more questions related to: * how will the applications be displayed on the new skin, while conserving the same look on the old skin; * how much an application should preserve previous functionality and how many efforts are we putting in adapting the functionality for new layouts; * when do we create a new application vs. when do we retire one; * etc. This question applies in general to applications and you can also read some discussions about applications like Panels [1] or ColorThemes [2]. In this thread I want to discuss some variants related to application's presentation: http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/ApplicationPresentation#HVa… I am interested in our position regarding this topic and if we have like a 'standard' solution or if the answer depends on the application in cause. Thanks, Caty [1] http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/PanelsImprovements [2] http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/ColorThemeforFlamingo
