by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 06 Aug '15

Hi, With the introduction of Nested Documents and the removal of global menu, we are confronted with the problem of moving and redefining the content of 'Add' action. The iteration experiments multiple possible alternatives of the 'Add' location and look, read more http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/NestedAdd My recommendation is to: - Move the 'Add' (page/child) button inside the content area and display it as a button; - Move the 'Add wiki' functionality inside Drawer + Wiki Index; - Select the page template from the dedicated create action page; Feedback is welcomed. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Idea] Recommendation engine for the auto completion Extension
by vincent＠massol.net 06 Aug '15

Hi devs and especially Caleb, This is a wild idea of how to combine a Recommendation Engine and the Auto Completion Extension we have. See https://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/entry/eclipse_recommenders_for_netbeans_i… for the details. In short, it’s about listing the most used APIs at the top of the suggestion box when hitting the auto completion shortcut key. WDYT? Would the Recommendation Engine used by http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/RecommendationsApplica… work for this? I’m mostly curious at this stage since I don’t know how much work it would require. The idea would be that the recommendation engine would read all extension code found on github xwiki and xwiki-contrib repos to generate a usage list. This would need to run regularly and the result would need to find its way into the Auto Completion Extension somehow. Just a wild idea… :) Thanks -Vincent

Hi devs, The 7.2M2 release was planned for today but with the holidays, we’re a bit late on the planning. Specifically here’s our status for M2: * the new breadcrumb based on references (VI3, VI5) - done * the new script permission done right - done (I’m testing it this morning) * the updated document tree to support Nested Spaces (MA1, MA2) - Marius should finish today * plugging the new script services done in 7.2M1 for the move/update/delete features (but with the same UI for now) (UP1, DE1, MO1-4) - Marius to do it before Wednesday * update the import UI to use a document tree (IE1-3) - to be done by Thomas * agree on the various proposals - Caty did some summary mails - @All please verify you’ve replied * stabilize the CI build - to be done So I propose to delay the 7.2M2 release to this Wednesday. Thanks -Vincent
