Hi devs,
 Since JV and I are at Javaone, Thomas Mortagne has kindly accepted to
 become the release manager for XE 1.4RC1.
 I've quickly reviewed the jira list of outstanding issues and I think
 the following should be fixed before the RC1 release:
 
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2274
 http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1809
 Also we need to verify that the Lucene plugin works fine and doesn't
 throw any error when we start XE and leave it running for a few
 minutes as it used to do (I think Sergiu fixed this).
 Anyone knows of any crucial outstanding issue for 1.4RC1? Note that
 RC1 means that it's a release candidate for being promoted to 1.4
 final in a few days if its stable enough. 
Not really an outstanding issue but...
I am planning to have the next XWatch release based on XWiki 1.4 and,
because of GWT's problems with browser standards mode rendering, I need a
method to remove the document type declaration in the standard xwiki
pages. The simplest solution would be to add a parameter to handle the
declaration in htmlheader.vm. Now, since Watch is deployed as a xar, I
cannot do that watch-specific and I need it in platform-web. The specific
issue bothering me is at: 
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWATCH-104 .
WDYT?
Is it ok to allow the users to request a page with a specific doctype? Is
it ok to do it this way? (the cleaner solution, but harder to implement,
would be to have the doctype specified at content render time e.g.
$response.setDoctype("standard"))
If all above true, can we have this in 1.4?
Happy coding,
Anca Luca
 The release was planned for last Friday so we need to set a new
 release date (tomorrow would be great). I'll let Thomas propose a date.
 Thanks
 -Vincent
