Hi devs, Today is BFD#88: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/XWikiDays#HBugfixingdays We've postponed BFDs during the summer because of the large amounts of work we had on our hands with Nested Spaces / Nested Documents, but since 7.2 was released, it is now a good time to resume. Our current status for the 1 year period is 52 bugs behind. See: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=10000#Created-vs-R… Here's the BFD#88 dashboard to follow the progress during the day: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=13501 Thanks and enjoy your bug fixing day! -Eduard

[xwiki-devs] XML file format to import multiple revisions of an existing page via XAR upload
by Ghosh, Amrita 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Hi, I am trying to update an existing page (ad new revisions) by uploading XAR using REST API: curl -k -u Admin:admin -v -X POST -T "Main.testpage.xar" -H "Content-Type: application/stream" https://SERVER/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki?history=ADD I could successfully upload a single new revision to an existing page and that new revision is correctly showing up on the page history. But I wanted to upload multiple revisions at a time. For that in the document xml I specified the new revisions inside <versions> </versions> tag (similar to what we see in the XML of exported page with history), but that does not work. Is it possible to add multiple revisions to an existing page with a single XAR upload? Following are my document xml and package.xml inside the XAR file that I was using: Main/testpage.xml: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <xwikidoc version="1.1"> <web>Main</web> <name>testpage</name> <language/> <defaultLanguage>en</defaultLanguage> <translation>0</translation> <creator>XWiki.amritg</creator> <creationDate>1443041962000</creationDate> <versions>head 6.1; access; symbols; locks; strict; 6.1 date 2015.09.23.21.11.51; author XWiki.amritg; state full; branches; next 5.1; 5.1 date 2015.09.23.21.01.49; author XWiki.amritg; state full; branches; next ; desc @@ 6.1 log @@ text @<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xwikidoc> <web>Main</web> <name>testpage</name> <language></language> <defaultLanguage>en</defaultLanguage> <translation>0</translation> <parent></parent> <creator>XWiki.amritg</creator> <author>XWiki.amritg</author> <customClass></customClass> <contentAuthor>XWiki.amritg</contentAuthor> <creationDate>1443041962000</creationDate> <date>1443042713000</date> <contentUpdateDate>1443042713000</contentUpdateDate> <version>6.1</version> <title>Test Page</title> <defaultTemplate></defaultTemplate> <validationScript></validationScript> <comment></comment> <minorEdit>false</minorEdit> <syntaxId>xwiki/2.1</syntaxId> <hidden>false</hidden> <content>Update content for 6th revision</content></xwikidoc> @ 5.1 log @@ text @<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xwikidoc> <web>Main</web> <name>testpage</name> <language></language> <defaultLanguage>en</defaultLanguage> <translation>0</translation> <parent></parent> <creator>XWiki.amritg</creator> <author>XWiki.amritg</author> <customClass></customClass> <contentAuthor>XWiki.amritg</contentAuthor> <creationDate>1443041962000</creationDate> <date>1443042713000</date> <contentUpdateDate>1443042713000</contentUpdateDate> <version>5.1</version> <title>Test Page</title> <defaultTemplate></defaultTemplate> <validationScript></validationScript> <comment></comment> <minorEdit>false</minorEdit> <syntaxId>xwiki/2.1</syntaxId> <hidden>false</hidden> <content>Update content for 5th revision</content></xwikidoc> @ </versions> <author>XWiki.amritg</author> <contentAuthor>XWiki.amritg</contentAuthor> <date>1443042712000</date> <contentUpdateDate>1443042712000</contentUpdateDate> <version>6.1</version> <title>Test Page</title> <comment/> <minorEdit>false</minorEdit> <syntaxId>xwiki/2.1</syntaxId> <hidden>false</hidden> <content>Update content for 6th revision</content> </xwikidoc> Package.xml: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?> <package> <infos> <name>Main.testpage</name> <description/> <licence/> <author/> <version/> <backupPack>false</backupPack> <preserveVersion>true</preserveVersion> <extensionId/> </infos> <files> <file defaultAction="0" language="">Main.testpage</file> </files> </package> Thanks, Amrita

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Roadmap for XWiki 7.3
by vincent＠massol.net 01 Oct '15

01 Oct '15

Hi devs, Since 7.3 is a stabilization release I propose that we don’t introduce any new features in it and that we focus on stabilizing the Nested Spaces feature which has had its first release in XWiki 7.2. The idea would be to work on Nested Spaces issues as priority and reduce this list to zero: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/IssueNavigator!executeAdvanced.jspa?jqlQuery=%… Of course we should also fix any important bugs from other features too. In addition a user has asked us to look at * http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12294: Unable to build on Windows because of failing META-INF/components.txt check Last, in 7.3 and 7.4 we should also work on fixing/polishing features that have been introduced in this cycle (7.x), such as DW/EM work to improve upgrades. Proposed Dates: =============== 7.3M1: 12 October 2015 7.2M2: 26 October 2015 7.3RC1: 2 November 2015 7.3final: 9 Novembre 2015 Note that I’ve put only 1 week between M2 and RC1 and one week between RC1 and final because we need to have a 7.4 that ends before the end of the year. I’ve left one week of buffer between the end of 7.3 final and the start of 7.4M1 in case we have delays. Tentative dates for 7.4: 7.4M1: 30 November 2015 7.4M2: 14 December 2015 7.4RC1: 21 December 2015 7.4final: 28 December 2015 Note that we don’t have much margin with the Christmas holidays. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
