[xwiki-devs] [contrib] Livetable exporter macro extension request

by Stéphane Laurière

Hi everyone, I'd like to propose an evolution of the livetable Excel export macro [1] so as to support CSV export, and possibly ODS in the future. I'm adding Anca and Guilhaume as original authors (and we discussed the idea with Anca). Since the existing macro name would not match with this new functional perimeter, my proposal would be to create a new macro that we could call "livetable exporter macro". This macro would be at first a copy of the existing one in order to keep the source code history tree, and then it would evolve on its own. Hence my question: would you approve the creation of a "macro-livetable-exporter" repository on github.com/xwiki-contrib, and an LTEXP project in JIRA?

[xwiki-devs] [GSOC] XWiki is applying for GSoC 2019. Proposals and mentors needed!

by Eduard Moraru

Hello fellow XWiki community members, This year XWiki is planning to participate once more at Google's Summer of Code [1]. The organization registration period has already started (15th January) and the deadline is on the 6th February [2] (just 1 week left). 1. We need to provide by then a list of proposals and assign mentors for the students that are going to implement them. I would like to ask everybody that wants to participate as a mentor from the XWiki organization to review the proposals [3] list (we have just 5 proposed projects up to now) and add as many interesting proposals as possible. The proposals can be either new, or they can be revived from previous years. Just navigate to the previous years [4], find the proposal you like and know about, go to its proposal page (click it) and press the "Clone to this year" link. Now you can assign yourself as lead for that project, update it's description if needed and wait for the student applications to start pouring :) 2. We also need to submit the actual application [5] of the XWiki organization to participate to the GSoC 2019 project so I would also like to ask you to review it so that we have a better chance of being selected into the program. 3. If you feel that you would like to help on improving XWiki's GSoC guides and application forms, please find tips for students [6] on XWiki's GSoC page, the student application form [7] and the lessons learned [8] from previous years participations. Thanks for your help, Eduard ---- [1] https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ [2] https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/how-it-works/#timeline [3] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/#HProposedProjects28… [4] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/WebHome#HPreviousGSo… [5] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/OrganizationApplicat… <https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/OrganizationApplica…> [6] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/Guidelines <https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/Guidelines> [7] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/student+application+… <https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/student%20applicati…> [8] http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/LessonsLearned <https://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GoogleSummerOfCode/LessonsLearned>

[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Drop support for IE11

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

IE is the last browser we are supporting at a particular version, see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/BrowserSupportStrategy . For all the other browsers, we are supporting just the latest release. We are supporting the latest version of Microsoft Edge since XWiki 9.9, starting from 24/Oct/17. Microsoft Edge replaced Internet Explorer as the default web browser since the release of Windows 10 (launched Jul 2015). Internet Explorer 11 is maintained on Windows 10 for compatibility purposes, but is deprecated in favor of Edge and is no longer actively developed. We discussed dropping IE11 in the past Oct 6, 2017 (see https://xwiki.markmail.org/thread/qsrkka6zfrmyxv3d), but the vote failed. Some updated statistics: -------------------------------------------------- XWiki.org's 1 year traffic (between Sep 30, 2016 - Sep 30, 2017) compared to Oct 1, 2017 - May 31, 2018: - Internet Explorer dropped from (5.84%) to (4.65%) -- from this percentage, IE 11 usage has increased from (88.43%) to (88.76%) - Edge increased from (1.56%) to (1.84%). In terms of Worldwide market share for Desktops, for the past 12 months (according to http://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/desktop/ ), we have Sep, 2016 - Sep, 2017 compared to May 2017 - May 2018: - Internet Explorer dropped from 8.21% to 6.97% - Edge dropped from 4.3% to 4.15% In May 2018, Global Market Share Worldwide for All Platforms contains: - Chrome 58.09% - Safari 13.78% - UC Browser 8.16% - Firefox 5.27% - Opera 3.68% - Internet Explorer combined is at 3.08% (with IE 11 having 2.65%. IE11 in August 2017 had 3.04%) - Edge combined having 1.91% (Edge combined in August 2017 had 1.8%) - etc. -------------------------------------------------- In terms of statistics, IE11 is more used than Microsoft Edge. The only argument of dropping IE11 is that it's a browser that is deprecated for about 3 years, and it's limiting the usage of newer specifications (like CSS Flex, Grid, etc.) I'm curios about how this period of supporting both IE11 and Edge went, and if you have other examples of things you wanted to use and are not supported by IE11. Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Document picker in include and display macros

by Adel Atallah

Hi devs, After discussing with Marius and Thomas, we thought it might be a good idea to do the following to have a document picker in the include and display maros: * Remove the deprecation of the document parameter (only for the include macro). * Introduce a new annotation to macro parameters to specify / override its type (different from its actual java type). The new annotation will mostly be useful for the WYSIWYG side. In our case we want to use the document parameter which is a String. The annotation will allow us to work with a DocumentReference instead which can be used to display the document picker when editing the macro in WYSIWYG mode. To be clear, here is how we would use it: @PropertyType(DocumentReference.class) public void setDocument(String document) WDYT? Thanks, Adel

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Change of XS Cycle strategy to account for Christmas

by Vincent Massol

Hi devs, Some devs mentioned it’s too hard to release the N.11 release since it happens around Christmas every year. Here’s a proposal: * Shorten the cycle to 11 releases instead of 12. * Release N.9 at end of Nov * Release N.10 at end of first week of Jan. Note: N.10RC1 would be released mid December (about 17th of Dec to have 3 weeks of RC). * Release N+1.0 at end of February. Start of N+1.0 work Pros: * No release during Christmas, yeah :) * More time to prepare the first LTS bugfix release, i.e. N.10.1, which can be done during the month of January. * More time for the first released of N+1 (i.e. N+1.0). This is important since that’s the release where we can do heavy refactoring and it’s not bad to get some more time. Cons: * One less release WDYT? Do you see other cons? Thanks -Vincent
