I agree with you that "publication application" would be too much of a
conflict with the other application.
What about "Advanced Copy Application" or even just "Copy
Application"
? I find it not so bad regarding what it does even if it does a bit
more than just copy (but any application that worth its own name and
repository would do a little more than just copy I guess).

Hello XWiki devs,
slauriere and I have worked on an extension that copies pages from one wiki
(based on a HQL query selecting them) to another wiki, allowing to exclude
some class properties from objects in those pages, if the objects are
present.
It's coded as an async job, it can be manually triggered or scheduled with
a scheduler job.
We used it to implement some publication scenario, where contributors work
on a set of documents on a subwiki and then these documents, if validated,
get copied (published) to another subwiki periodically. The validation is
based on the custom structure of those documents, using the generic feature
of this extension that allows to select documents to be published based on
a query. Otherwise there's nothing else related to publication in the code
of the application itself.
We'd like to publish this application on contrib, so can we please have a
repo for it?
However, we have some trouble choosing its name. The name that we used so
far is "publication application" but we think it might be misleading esp.
because of the similarity with publication workflow with which it has
nothing to do.
So, if you have an idea for a name that would correctly illustrate this
work (and its future enhancements), please help us choose its name and
create the repo.
Thanks,
Anca
