Re: [xwiki-dev] New XWiki Project: XWiki Enterprise Manager (XEM)

Hi XWikiers, The XEM project consist in bringing together all the resources needed by a xwiki farm (configuration files, plugins, default wikis, etc). The XEM will allow users (or only admins depending on a configurable option) to create new wikis from - at least - a wiki template. It will need at least 3 wikis (XARs) : - xem-administrator : wikis and users administration. - xem-sheet : the current xwiki XAR. - xem-template : a modified version of the current xwiki XAR which, instead of containing all the default scripts, will make includes from the xem-sheet. The use of nearly "empty shells" wikis will allow to customize all the wikis from centralized modifications. JIRA : http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XEM xem-administrator features : ---------------------------- - Administration of multiple wikis in a single-screen - Creation of a new wiki from a "wiki template" in a couple of clicks -- unlimited number of wiki templates (any wiki can become one) - Administration of all the members of those wikis in a single-screen -- Groups manager (global+local) -- Rights manager (global+local) - Advanced usage statistics - Administrator dashboard (displaying various infos from all the wikis) - User dashboard (displaying various infos from user's wikis) - New search interface (Lucene & XWiki search) XEM Sources : -------------- - xwiki-plugins/multiwiki (createWiki, copyWiki, etc) - xwiki-applications/wikis/xem-administrator (main wiki) - xwiki-applications/wikis/xem-sheet (copy of the default wiki) - xwiki-applications/wikis/xem-template (default template wiki) - xwiki/web/xem (XEM webapp : xwiki.cfg with virtual mode activated) While most of the developments are done on interfaces any help on Velocity/HTML/CSS would be greatly appreciated. If anyone has already worked with stats/graph plugin we'd be keen on getting any help/snippets. Thanks, JV. 2007/5/26, Vincent Brousseau <vincent.brousseau(a)gmail.com>om>:
