[xwiki-devs] [ANN] XWiki Enterprise 1.3 RC1 Released

by Vincent Massol

The XWiki development team is pleased to announce the release of XWiki Enterprise 1.3 RC 1. Go grab it at http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download First release candidate for XWiki Enterprise 1.3 (and hopefully the last one). Main changes from 1.3M2: * Lots of bugs fixed * Improved Toucan Skin with several bug fixes on IE * Added a new XWiki.XWikiSyntax page that lists XWiki syntax to replace the link to the xwiki.org web site, thus allowing the ability to see syntax information even when offline. * Generalized Ajax Suggest Feature (see XWIKI-1604 - No documentation yet). * Ability to force a default language. * Ability to enable/disable the watchlist feature by wiki. Moved the Watchlist pages to an application proper (i.e. as XWiki documents) instead of template files. * Added License/Notice files to all released files. * Added ability to customize the email template for the Watchlist feature (the email template is located in the XWiki.WatchListMessage page). * The Watchlist feature now sends the change differences in the email. + lots of other changes For more information see the Release notes at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise13RC1 Thanks -The XWiki dev team

[xwiki-devs] please, who give me the key about CalSWIM?

by [Ricardo Rodriguez] Your EPEC Network ICT Team

Hi all Sorry for cross-posting, but I am not sure what was the list where I've read the message where one of you give me an address or information leading to these websites: http://mondego.calit2.uci.edu:7000/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ http://calswim.org/ And the name of Crista Lopes (http://www.ics.uci.edu/~lopes/) A couple of days ago Ludovic points me again in the same direction. I though it was Paul Libbrecht or Guillaume Lerouge who firstly talk to me about these projects, but I am not able to find the email of reference. Please, to whoever I've forgotten: accept my apologies! But, could you resend me the reference, or just the original message if you have still it in your sent folder? Thanks!! All the best, Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez Your EPEC Network ICT Team

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Delete Core, Web, Panels and XE 1.1 branches

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Now that we've started creating the branch for 1.3 I'd like to remove the 1.1 branches for Core, Web, Panels and XE. Rationale: * Cleanliness * Having opened branches can tempt committers to commit stuff to the branch. Closing it clearly shows that we don't intend to work on it anymore * We still have the latest released 1.1.x versions, so if there's an urgent need to release a 1.1.3 version we can still do it. * This will allow us to remove the 1.1.3 version in JIRA thus keeping it clean too and again preventing people from using it. * We can't work/support too many branches at once, that's just too much work * We want people to upgrade to newer versions. * XE 1.2 was released quite some time ago and is stable. 1.3 is about to be released as final too. Here's my +1 Thanks -Vincent

by Vincent Massol

Hi, Two reasons: 1) the xwiki.com one is not working 2) this version is about the community If nobody shouts I'll just replace it. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] XWiki - the company - is looking for Interns and Employees for it's Iasi Office

by Ludovic Dubost

Since I'm getting such a great response from the community to help us win the vote (the community rulez !), I'm going to ask for some more help. We are looking for some Interns (Paris or even remotely) and/or employees for our Iasi Office in Romania. More info about the profiles we are looking for at http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/About/Jobs We are especially looking for Web Developers working on top of the XWiki platform (scripting, web technologies, javascript, AJAX, CSS) to work on XWiki applications and on client projects. http://www.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/About/JobsWebDeveloper We are looking obviously for people that believe in Open Source and it's values. We see the XWiki company (currently XPertNet, soon XWiki SAS) as a bridge between the business world and the open source world. We want XWiki to be both available for free but also easily available for companies wanting support and services (maybe that would require a much longer email to the community). In any case if any of you are interested or if you know people that might, don't hesitate to forward this around and make it known that there is an great open source company looking for more help to make great software and provide great solutions. Thanks for you help Ludovic -- Ludovic Dubost Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost

[xwiki-devs] Commited initial wysiwyg editor and gwt 1.4 branch

by Ludovic Dubost

Marius and developers, I've commited a working gwt 1.4 based wysiwyg editor module. You need to take https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-platform/web/branches/xwiki-web-g… and https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/sandbox/wysiwyg/ You should put the wysiwyg under web/ The two files standard.pom.xml and web.pom.xml are web/standard/pom.xml and web/pom.xml modification to build the wysiwyg module in addition. The initial editor is available using mvn install -Pjettyrun at http://localhost:8080/xwiki/com.xpn.xwiki.wysiwyg.Wysiwyg/Wysiwyg.html It's a rich text editor with the full standard toolbar and two text boxes allowing to view the wiki-> html -> wiki conversion. It currently uses the Radeox renderer for wiki->html and the code from Christian Gmeiner for html -> wiki This part is not yet the important part. We shoud replace them with a more powerfull HTML to Wiki parser. Either directly based on a new XWiki 2.0 syntax or working with new AND old syntax. I think we need to start by getting the editor UI in place. I think the architecture should be as much to be very independent from the syntax itself. The editor should as much as possible work without knowing much about the HTML itself. This might be a bit complex for links, images or attachments. Maybe what we need is the FF3 (and IE6) feature that allows to make a block non editable in the editor (content-editable = false or something like that). We then take control of the double click on the item and open the appropriate dialog box to edit. We should use the same type of thing to show macros in WYSIWYG mode (we would need a macro renderer API - macro + params). Maybe the first thing you can start doing Marius, is get used to the editor by implementing simple stuff that we currently have in the editor. We need to do: - links -- lnternal links (last, search, recent, multiwiki, other by extension) -- Attachements (page, space, wiki, multiwiki, webdav, other by extension) -- Image -- email -- external link - images (need to chose image with link or link with image) - table icons - colors and fonts - switch to wiki syntax - view in the xwiki styles We also need to make eveything configurable: - which buttons and features - choice of output syntax We then will need among other things - make it properly embeddable - import from HTML/Word/other wiki syntax - shortcuts for links and titles without using the menus (to be as efficient as typing [ ]) - visual macros (with many macros, using DnD) - a macro editor - real time editing (need to take it into account right away) - powerfull tables (a la Excel) I'm just talking about all these things so that we have a view on the final objective. More info here about the feature requirements. http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorBasedOnGwt Ludovic -- Ludovic Dubost Blog: http://blog.ludovic.org/ XWiki: http://www.xwiki.com Skype: ldubost GTalk: ldubost

[xwiki-devs] New branch for GWT 1.4 port and GWT Wysiwyg editor

by Ludovic Dubost

I'm going to create a new branch in https://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/xwiki-platform/web/ and a new module in sandbox. 1/ Wysiwyg module in sandbox. New GWT based editor. It will use the GWT Rich Editor and the XWiki GWT Api to allow editing wiki pages. The objective is to have a: - feature equivalent editor - highly improved stability of the editor - highly improved stability of the html -> wiki -> html convertor with a server side convertor - support for velocity and groovy - great speed enhancements thanks to no popup and great ajax - great architecture - support for the future XWiki Rendering - new cool features The editor will need GWT 1.4 and a server side module for the syntax conversion. 2/ Branch for GWT 1.4 Port It will port the GWT Api to GWT 1.4, adding a js function that was removed from GWT and getting rid of gwttk which does not have a 1.4 support. This branch will also include the syntax convertor for the wysiwyg module. This will be only temporarly to only have one branch for working on the editor. Once GWT 1.4 gets into the trunk we can get rid of this code and move it to a wysiwyg specific branch or wire it to a core syntax conversion API once it exists.
