Hi devs,
In the Roadmap proposal I've sent for XWiki 5.2 some days ago, there's
this time:
"
* Have Workspace by default in XE + improved home page - Caty + Guillaume
Delhumeau. FTR Guillaume is not a committer yet but he's going to work full
time on XWiki development and especially on UI aspects from now on. Welcome
aboard Guillaume, we need you! :)
"
Denis told me he didn't know about the proposal of having Workspaces
integrated in the default XAR. Thus I'm sending this email to ensure we all
agree about this.
The rationale is:
* It would be nice that when our users download XWiki (standalone version
or install the default XAR) they get to see the power of XWiki. One of the
very important differentiator of XWiki vs other wikis/solutions is our
multi-tenancy feature and most of people downloading and installing XWiki
don't see it.
* XEM/Wiki Manager are lacking polishing because the committers mostly
polish the default which doesn't include those. The UIs of XEM/Wiki Manager
need polishing. Having them in default will ensure that we take them into
account and make them first class citizens when we develop.
Caty started working on the home page/UI improvements required to
integrate this by default:

Here's my +1
Thanks

Hi Vincent,
I fully agree with your argument, and we need a solution for that. But I am
concerned on not having this default integration causing difficulties with
existing farm deployment. We should also be careful to not have that
feature taking too much place when left unused.
Is there some mockup of our target or are you just expecting to make XEM to
be XE ?
What do you expect this will evolve when we introduce flavor ?
Thanks,
