[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Adding support for H2 in our sources
by vincent＠massol.net 26 Dec '13

26 Dec '13

Hi devs, I’ve added support for H2 locally as I wanted to test something on it. The question is whether we’re ok to add support for it in our source (creating subwikis, deleting subwikis)? What I propose is: * I add what I’ve done to the sources * We don’t support it officially (ie similar to other DBs such as DB2) WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] nested lists broken in our wysiwyg editor
by Paul Libbrecht 25 Dec '13

25 Dec '13

Hello XWiki gurus, we've met an annoying bug in our xwiki 3.5.1: creating nested lists (numerated or bulleted) breaks the first sub-item because a (% %) appears in front of the list marker. (http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CURRIKI-6409) This is not there in xwiki.org today so I suppose it got fixed. But crawling Jira did not illuminate me on when this got fixed. Can someone give me a hint about it? thanks in advance paul

Hi everyone, I’d like to wish you some very good Christmas holidays and a happy new year since I’m going on holidays tonight for 1 week. Several committers are already on holidays and next week there’ll be very few of us active so it’ll be a quite week :) We’re charging up our batteries for the new XWiki 6.x development cycle next year! If you wish to help please fill the quick survey about what you’d like to see in XWiki 6.x: bit.ly/1c6evZQ Thanks a lot to all Merry Christmas -Vincent Massol

by vincent＠massol.net 20 Dec '13

Hi devs, Today is Bug Fixing Day 48 (apparently we missed a BFD last week, I couldn’t find any trace of it). We're currently at -130 bugs (we were at -126 bugs 2 weeks ago!) for the 1600 days period: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=10352 Seems we’re having a hard time containing bugs... Here's the BFD#48 dashboard to follow the progress during the day: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=11892 Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] New Features survey for the 6.x cycle
by Silvia Rusu 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

Hi devs, In 2009 and 2012 the xwiki.org project launched some surveys about features to have in XWiki in priority: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures2009 (results at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/FeatureStatus20120119 ) http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures2012 (results at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/FeatureSurveyResult201204 ) I thought it would be nice to launch a similar survey in 2013 in order to give the project some information to prepare the XWiki 6.x roadmap. I took 2012's survey content as a model and created a new version for 2013: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures2013 The results of the survey would be published on xwiki.org and shared with the committers list. I built the form using Google Docs, since they offer a nice free solution. However there's a limitation when it comes to sending notifications for the form. A Google account would be needed for the committers@ list in order to be able to send notifications to it each time the form is filled in. Is it possible for such an account to be created? Alternatively, I can send a detailed summary to the list when the survey comes to an end (beginning of February), since I will be working on a summary for xwiki.org. Please let me know if you're OK with sending the survey to the users list and if so, which alternative you prefer for the notifications/update on the results. If the response is positive I'll send the survey on the users list. Thanks, Silvia

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Roadmap for 5.4 and 5.5
by vincent＠massol.net 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

Hi devs, Here’s a proposal for the 5.4 and 5.5 *stabilization* releases. General goals: Finish all big domains started in the 5.x cycle. Content ====== * Continue fixing and stabilizing: ** EM/DW - Thomas/Marius ** SOLR Search - Marius ** Multiwiki - GuillaumeD ** Scalable import/export + Confluence import - Thomas * Script signing - Denis * Continue BFD but with a priority of fixing issues for the 5.x cycle (i.e. issues from the listed domains above). Also since we’re stabilizing, nothing dangerous should be committed and if a dev is not 100% sure about the consequences of what he’s doing he should raise it and ask for reviews (possibly go through pull requests). Here’s an ordered of important JIRA issue (top priority first). The goal is to try to do the maximum but it’s a best effort and some issues are too dangerous/complex for the 5.x cycle: - When upgrading a wiki, do not display what happened (files edited, etc.) in the Activity Stream - XWIKI-8765 - Scheduler / Watchlist activity shouldn't add a version to the page. Huge xwikircs table and terrible performances when reading it. - Creating an object changes the content author - XWIKI-9292 - Support 2 roles for users for app within minutes: application creator and data creator - XWIKI-8757 - Make several separate blogs in one xwiki - XWIKI-6348 - Wysiwyg no image resizing on Chrome - xwiki.cfg & xwiki.properties merging - Add default column and sort choices in AppWithinMinutes livetable setting XWIKI-9659 - Save & view a section should go to the section anchor instead of the top of the document XE-1335 - Activity Stream should not show deleted documents that was hidden. - XWIKI-9544 - Add a message for the Livetable's empty state - XWIKI-7821 - "Space Templates" should also create the space preferences page - XWIKI-9712 - The Wiki UIExtensions should check the rights before executing extension points - XWIKI-9156 Please add more if you’re planning to work on something not listed. Investigations: - Investigation bugs specific IE10/IE11 - Sorin/Manuel. Depending on the result we may want to add support for IE10 in 5.5.x. Dates ===== One goal is to try to keep 5.x cycle as close to 2013 as possible so that we can align cycles on calendar years and have a 6.x final at the end of 2014... Proposal 1: ========= - 5.4M1: 30th of Dec - 5.4RC1: 13th of Jan 2014 - 5.4 Final: 20th of Jan 2014 - 5.5M1: 27th of Jan 2014 - 5.5RC1: 10th of Feb 2014 - 5.5 Final: 17th of Feb 2014 Proposal 2: ========= Group together 5.4 and 5.5 and increase timeframe of 5.4 and have bugfix release of 5.5 if needed. - 5.4M1: 6th of Jan 2014 - 5.4RC1: 20th of Jan 2014 - 5.4Final: 27th of Jan 2014 This solution allows us to end the 5.x cycle in Jan 2014 as planned and start 6.x at beginning of Feb 2014. And important issues get fixed as bug fix releases of 5.4.x (5.4.1, 5.4.2, etc). WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

Hi Devs, i like to create dynamic list inside a page with {{velocity}} {{html}} <form action="" id="song"> Song: <input type="text" name="name" value="Name of the song" /> <input type="button" value="Add Song" onclick='this.form.submit();'> </form> {{/html}} #if($request.getParameter("song")); $response.sendRedirect($doc.getURL('view')) #end $request.getParameter("name") {{/velocity}} I want to place some text-lines and they should be displayed in a table. Is there an example which already use something similar?
