I think we should only move it when we have a build solution for
external skins. I have also already proposed a layout for that and
it's been accepted so it's just a matter of implementing it.
We also need to decide how we package the dodo skin. The best would
be a XAR as users would then be able to import new skins easily. But
as we discussed previously we need to ensure this works and we need
to develop the build tools to transform a skin on the file system
into a XWiki skin document. Alternatively we could package it as a
zip (much but not as nice for end user and I think it would be nice
to have the XAR solution so that we can start releasing extra skins -
We also need a skin development guide to encourage users to develop
new skins).
I'm worried that if we remove the dodo skin without being prepared
we'll simply forget about it.

wws Hi,
Dodo has already been deprecated. Now it's time to decide when
do we
remove it from the trunk, as it's getting
harder to maintain it.
Since 1.1 is about having a better wiki, would it be OK to
remove it
in the 1.1 release? Or should we wait until 2.0?
+1 to remove Dodo from the trunk.
Hmm... I'm not so sure. I think we need several skins. I'd be +1 to
remove it from the default wiki. However we do need more than 1 skin.
So it could the dodo skin that we keep maintaining or some other
skin. I've met several users (not a majority though) that prefer the
dodos kin over the albatross one as it's less heavy.
So for now, I'm +1 to remove it from the default wiki but I'm also +1
to distribute it separately (we need to decide how we do this: as a
zip or as a XAR).
Thanks
