As Vincent was saying I think this has an important impact on many
projects that are build on top of XWiki.
Doing this before 1.0 is going to force all these projects to update the
many different project build files.
I know it's not good to change API names between a 1.0 and a 1.1
release, but I really think this should be done on a 1.1 or 2.0 release.
This would allow projects build on top of the core to decide wether to
base thir work on 1.0 stable or to work on 1.1 or 2.0 and then upgrade
their project files.
So my vote is YES let's do it, but NOT now. If we can postpone this to
end of march that would be great.

Hi,
Actually I wrote this email offline and I only sent it yesterday night
by error. I had written it earlier and in the meantime I had spoken to
Ludovic who thinks this is going to cause trouble with current
projects. Thus I was going not to send it but it got sent when I got
connected to a wifi hotspot in the street... ;-)
The other option we have is to do this move when we move to the new
2.0 architecture. Of course this means 1.0 users are going to use the
APIs and current packages to write plugins, etc and it'll be harder to
move all of them to the new package structure later on. But if it's
going to cause too much problem to current projects I understand.
Ludovic, please let us know your POV.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I think it would be better for the XWiki project to use a org.xwiki
package. There are several reasons for this:
- fits better as XWiki is under OSS/LGPL
- the company name can change, it's less likely the product name will
change
- I believe if we want to make that change we should do it before the
1.0 release, as it's quite an important change and would break some
advanced usages of XWiki (like plugin creators, extension creators in
general). I think users should be safe though for the vast majority,
unless they're doing funky stuff in their pages.
Here's my +1
Thanks
