Hi Tharindu,
Good work, the mockups are nice!
I've read the use cases too and I think it's missing the key feature:
* The ability to edit pages inside the Eclipse editor (as opposed to
editing a page inside a browser inside Eclipse). We discussed this in
your past emails and we agreed this was important. I think this
should be one of the first use cases. Maybe you wish to implement it
just a little bit after?
* Other important use cases:
- ability to save the content of a page in a local eclipse store for
working offline
- ability to download all pages of a space or the whole wiki to that
store
- type ctrl-S to save a modified page
- warning when trying to save a locally modified page that has also
been modified on the server after the last sync was done
* I suggest you create a new IDEA page on
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/
bin/view/Idea/ containing the use cases list and the images so that
we can gather all contributions/ideas in one place.
* Next steps I'm proposing:
A) List all use cases you're planning to implement within the GSOC.
We need the full list as much as possible. Please put them all on the
wiki page I mentioned.
B) Define several milestones containing each a set of use cases.
Please try to map each milestone against XWiki releases as much as
possible (1.1M2, M3, M4, M5, etc). See
http://jira.xwiki.org the
planned delivery dates. It's better we all work on the same delivery
cycles.
C) Create as many JIRA issues as you have use cases + one JIRA issue
that is the main issue for your GSOC project. Please set the fix for
for these jira issues against the defined milestones in B) above.
Note: For now please create the jira issues in the XWiki project.
I'll create a separate jira project for your GSOC project in a few
days and I'll move the issues over. You can use a component of
"Others" for now.
WDYT?
Let us know if you have other questions.
Thanks!
-Vincent

Hi all,
Here I have attached some mock GUIs and a very intuitive
requirements spec that illustrate the
basic workings of XWiki-Eclipse plug-in. It's better if we can
finalize these drafts soon because I
need to go on with the development :). I have few doubts on the
java package structure as well as
about the icon graphics for the plug-in (i thought of re-using
eclipse's ones where suitable).
I went through XWiki XML RPC APIs and am comfortable with thw way
they work (had to
sharpen my SWT skills too). I'm looking forward to hear from you..
