Shouldn't it say "XWiki Enterprise" instead? Also shouldn't it mention that it's packaging Tomcat and MySQL too? I don't understand why you're proposing to move it to the platform. It seems to me it's an XE packaging and not a Platform packaging. More generally we need to decide what packages we want to officially support as a dev team. Should we support them all: RPM, DMG, etc? should we only support some? Personally I think it's ok to add support for as many platforms as we want provided 1) that the quality is good enough (otherwise it generates lots of questions on the lists and doesn't give a good image of the XWiki project) and 2) that we have an active committer willing to support it. In case this committers goes away or becomes inactive on this distribution we shouldn't hesitate to move it to xwiki-contrib. Regarding the work you started I think it could be ok to start making it part of our official sources provided you agree to maintain it and make it to a high quality standard. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
