Dear Vincent,
Wow that is impressive, I think that the page contains all the needed
information as it is, but if omething else will come in my mind I 'll write
you. In any case thanks for your time and your work!

 That is exactly the point, I mean, you have linked 5 distinct pages 
 containing the
information required for the development of a new extention
 and it is not easy to find the right information inside the wiki . So in
 the end yes, I think that everything should be written in a single page.
 Sorry if I may sound irriverent, it is not my intention, I only would 
 maje
suggestions to improve XWiki.
 Thanks! No problem :)
 I’ve started a first version at
 
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/BuildingDeployingExtension
 Let me know if it’s good enough and what is missing from your POV.
 Once it’s good enough I’ll move it to a proper location and reference it
 from the other tutorials.
 Thanks
 -Vincent
  Thanks for your time and patience.
 Giordano.
