Hi devs, I’d like to propose some changes to the governance related to paying extensions and extensions.xwiki.org and the Extension Manager. * Make extensions.xwiki.org an extension repo for free and open source extensions only. This is the case till now but during the last governance change VOTE we had said we could allow non-free versions. After more thinking I believe it’s better that companies who want to have paying apps provide them through their own extension repository. One issue is that these companies will need to have users register and log in and we cannot do that on xwiki.org. * Allow top sponsoring companies to have their extension repository defined in the default XWiki configuration (in xwiki.properties). I’m proposing that sponsoring companies require 3 active committers to be able to have their stores listed by default in the XWiki config. The same would be done on nexus.xwiki.org which would proxy any maven repo from a top sponsoring company. Note that any company (even one not participating to the development of the XWiki project can provide an extension repository with some instructions for users to add their repo to their config - This point here is only about having some repos by default). * Allow the top sponsoring company (TSC) an advertising space on the home page of extensions.xwiki.org to advertise extensions it wishes to promote. Please cast your votes. Here’s my +1 Thanks -Vincent _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
