Why is LDAP authentication on by default?
I would have assumed it to be off by default since the default
authentication mechanism is to use xwiki's DB. I know the new LDAP
impl will try XWiki's DB if it can't log on LDAP but that's not a good
thing to do by default since everyone will incur some overhead and the
fact that LDAP is on by default is misleading in this case.
Note: I may have missed something since I've been off for 2 days and
only unpiling my emails now ;)
Thanks

Hi devs,
I've seen that lots of bugs have been fixed and several improvements
introduced. For most of them the issues have been closed without tests
and this is really not good. We've decided that the 1.3 release would
be the release when we start adding tests and even though some efforts
were made for 1.3M2 this is not regressing in 1.3RC1 and it's not good.
Could those who've been doing commits recently try to spend some more
time on the tests please?
Note: A special congrats to Thomas who's done the LDAP integration
tests :)
Thanks

Hi all,
As XEM 1.1 is planned for current March I would like to synchronise
XEM 1.1 release on XE 1.3 final release planned for 14th of March.
WDYT ?

Pardon me if I am asking very basic questions.
But, my question is about being able to build enterprise level application
on top of XWiki.
For doing something like this, do I have to use the XWiki platform (core )
source code or XWiki Enterprise code or both?
Is there a location on XWiki website which talks about the details of this.
Thanks
Vincen,
Thanks much for the reply. It is very helpful
But, the http://tinyurl.com/3352dy does not seem to work.
Thanks

Hi,
I was wondering if this has ever been discussed before in this mailing list
- Having the attched files being version controlled by SVN?
We use SVN a lot in our company and it would be great if there exists some
integration between XWiki and SVN to save the attached files.
Thanks
Hi devs,
I think it is time to completely switch to Java 5. It adds several nice
features we could use.
I think it is safe to make the switch, given that:
- We get only few mails related to deployment on Java 1.4, and only very
few say that they cannot drop 1.4.
- Java 1.4 is in the late EOL process (should end this summer)
- We already have some requirements on 1.5 libraries, so XWiki doesn't
really work on 1.4, anyway
Here's my +1

Hi,
Since we've realized that testing a new skin isn't easy, I'm going to
start a Skin Tester application (a XAR) that will have some specially
built page made for testing a skin.
The idea is not to duplicate what's already in the default wiki.
I'll start with a page listing all the macros so that they can be
easily tested.
I'll commit it in the platform applications. Feel free to improve it
afterwards.
Thanks

Just wanted to let you know that I've modified the jira dashboard on http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa
Whereas previously the 2 graphs were taking into account all JIRA
projects on jira.xwiki.org they are now only taking into accout XE/XEM
and all platform projects only.
Thanks
