AS needs a custom property in hibernate.cfg.xml plus a special config in

installed. So, in short, not easy installable.
Dear developers,
Now that we consider notifications as an achieved replacement for both
Activity Stream and the Watchlist, I propose to stop maintaining them and
to move them into the "attic" section.
You need to know that we had a dependency on the Activity Stream API, as
the only implementation of the Event Stream, on which the Notifications
are
based. So to get rid of this dependency (the code
is not using our
component system and is not well tested), I have written a new
implementation of the Event Stream that I have called "Event Stream
Store".
It's fully backward compatible with the old
implementation, since it is
using the same Database schema. In practice, I re-used some pieces of
Activity Stream that I have modified to fit into components. For more
information, see: https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-16052
So my proposal is this one:
- use the new store in 11.1
- stop bundle Watchlist and AS in 11.1
Will 11.1 version be easily installable as extension (in case some old
extension needs it for example) ?
- move Watchlist and AS into "attic" in
11.2
Thanks you,
