[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Releasing a contrib project - Guidelines
by vincent＠massol.net 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

Hi devs, I’d like to propose to add some guidelines to contrib.xwiki.org when someone wants to release a project, especially when that person is not the project lead. * The person wanting to do the release should contact the project lead, preferable either through IRC or the mailing list to mention its intent to perform a new release. ** This allows anyone who also want to have some issue fixed be able to do so in the same release for example. ** Usually that person will not have the permission to create a version in JIRA for that project and thus he/she’ll need the Project Lead’s help for that WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Behaviour change when restoring a document regarding its history
by vincent＠massol.net 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

Hi devs, I’ve just realized (thanks to a failing functional test) that we’ve changed the behavior we had when we restore a deleted document. We used to add a revision with a comment text of "Restored from recycle bin”. After https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9960, there’s no new revision created when restoring a deleted document. We need to decide if that’s what we want. Apart from the fact that it’s a minor backward-compatibility breakage (for tools/scripts expecting that revision), the only downside I can see is that by looking at a document history you won’t be able to get the full list of what happened to this doc, i.e. that such user has restored the document. WDYT? Personally I think this could be acceptable but I’m not sure. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Proposal: Mouseflow on xwiki.org
by Benjamin Lanciaux 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

Hello XWiki community, I’m Benjamin, in charge of Marketing at XWiki SAS. I have a suggestion for xwiki.org. We are currently using Mouseflow on xwiki.com. This tool allows us to track and record sessions on the website. This is interesting in various aspects. First, we know more about the behavior of our website visitors. This helps us to better understand what are the paths they are using to access various contents and documents. This tools generates heatmaps for: - click, - movement, - scroll, - attention etc. You’ll get more info here > https://mouseflow.com/tour/session-playback/ At XWiki SAS, we have currently 1 licence for 3 websites. So I propose to install it on xwiki.org. I’m planning to record 1 session out of 2. If nobody is against this idea, I’ll share after one month some results with you. I will also propose some ideas to improve the path to download sections, but also to service providers and to the documentation. I’m looking forward to your feedback on this, Thanks, Benjamin -- <http://xwiki.com> *Benjamin Lanciaux* *Marketing Communications Manager* benjamin.lanciaux(a)xwiki.com tel: +33 (0)1 45 42 40 90 skype: benjaminxwiki

[xwiki-devs] Android XWiki authenticator and contact synchronization
by siddharth singh 02 Mar '16

02 Mar '16

Hi Developers, I am interested in contributing to the project “Android XWiki authenticator and contact synchronization” as a part of GSoC-2016. I was trying to build Android-Authenticator on my system from https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/android-authenticator <https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/android-authenticator> . I am getting import errors ‘AuthenticatorActivity.java’, particularly this one ‘import static org.xwiki.android.authenticator.AccountGeneral.sServerAuthenticate’ because there is nothing related to sServerAuthenticate in the ‘AccountGeneral.java’ file. I need help on this. A quick introduction, I’m Siddharth Singh, a second year student at IIIT Delhi, India. My major is Computer Science. Thanks and Regards Siddharth Singh

Dear developers: I cloned the XWiki-commons to my local and I import it into IntelliJ. However, I come with some errors which said that I can't find some packages such as org.apache.maven.model.Model, etc. I also run the command in http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building and it turns out the same. What am I missing? Should I edit the pom.xml manually to import those packages? Looking forward to your reply. Jian Guo

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Agree that we allow ourselves to add new Link Types
by vincent＠massol.net 01 Mar '16

01 Mar '16

Hi devs, During the discussions regarding http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XRENDERING-290 ("Add support for linking to a user profile page in XWiki Syntax”) we hesitated adding a new link type named “user:” because that would have broken backward compatibility for users having a wiki named “user”. See http://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/vw3derowozijqalr and the ensuing http://markmail.org/message/t2wb2xq7534qsshg Now time has passed and we’ve just added the support for the “space” prefix for wiki links, as in e.g. [[space:Space1.space]]. FYI, we’ve added the following in the release notes: “ We've introduced the possibility to explicitly create a link to a Space in XWiki Syntax 2.1, e.g. [[space:Space1.Space2]]. However if you had a subwiki named space the new notation will conflict with the syntax for referencing that wiki. Thus you'll need to edit existing links such as [[space:something]] to [[doc:space:something]]. And if you wish to reference a given space in the space subwiki, you'd write [[space:space:something]]. “ The rationale is that the resource reference syntax is not really tied to the wiki syntax and we’re not going to increment the wiki syntax version each time we add a new type of resource. So with this VOTE I’d like to ensure that we’re ok to allow ourselves to continue adding new resource reference types. For example we could add “user:” in the future without having to go through a VOTE again. Whenever we do this, we would just need to mention it in the release notes. Of course we shouldn’t add a prefix named “xwiki” ;) Please cast your vote. Here’s my +1 Thanks -Vincent
