 No, I mean more generic. xwiki-enterprise is too specific, it means
 exactly the XWiki Enterprise product.

 I chose voluntarily to not have xwiki-enterprise-distribution-archetype because it
doesn't build distributions. It generates all modules to build a product based on XE.
 
 Right, "product" is the right term. I used "distribution" as a
synonym
 of "product" (like a Linux distro) not with the "packaging/installer"
 sense that's used in the actual XE modules.
 So, +1 for xwiki-product-archetype. 
 Except that all modules in enterprise start with xwiki-enterprise so that would be
xwiki-enterprise-product-archetype and I believe it's overkill since there's only
1 archetype ATM.
 If everyone thinks that  xwiki-enterprise-product-archetype is better than
xwiki-enterprise-archetype, I'll change it.
